Overview
As an administrator, you can add a group of users at one go using the CSV file. A CSV file enables you to provide details that are required for creating users in inSync. This method should be preferred over adding individual users to save time and efforts involved.
📝 Note
For shared mailbox, you can add users manually or import users from a CSV file.
Guidelines for creating the CSV file
Before you add users by importing information from a CSV file, ensure the following:
You or an administrator created the profile that you want to assign to the user.
You created the storage where you want inSync to back up the user data.
A CSV file containing the display names of the users and their corresponding email addresses is created.
