What's New?

Now, after bulk importing the CIs using the excel sheet, the user attribute data gets populated on the CI details page. The User attribute column in the excel sheet accepts only the E-mail Id of the user. You can also upload the excel sheet with the multi-valued data for the user attribute.

Business Benefit

Using the bulk update feature the user can save the time in updating all CIs at once instead of performing the action one at a time.

Personas

Administrator configures the User control with single-value or multi-value on the FORM BUILDER page.
End User imports the CIs in bulk using the excel sheet on the IMPORT CONFIGURATION ITEMS page.
