26.1.0

In Address Manager v26.1, resource records can be imported into zones in CSV or JSON format through the Address Manager UI. Address Manager v26.1 includes service enhancements to support the import of files previously exported from Address Manager tables. CSV and JSON files exported from Address Manager resource record tables can now be imported directly back into resource record tables in other configurations or servers. For information on exporting resource records in CSV or JSON format, refer to Exporting table data.

Note: If importing a CSV/JSON resource record export into a new configuration, the same view and zone must exist in the new configuration.
Note: The CSV examples below are provided for quick-start purposes. If transferring data between Address Manager tables, simply export the first table as CSV or JSON, then import that file into the destination table. The exported CSV/JSON from Address Manager contains information on all supported object fields for import.

Example CSV file (creating host record):

type,name,addresses[0].address,addresses[0].type
HostRecord,example-host,10.0.0.2,IPv4Address

Example CSV file (creating alias record):

type,name,linkedRecord.type,linkedRecord.absoluteName
