The Import Biometric devices feature is used to import batches of new biometric devices.
Overview
AuthX Import Biometric devices tool imports user information from a properly formatted comma-separated values (CSV) file. This streamlined process makes it easy to create biometric devices at the same time.
CSV import values should include Device Id. Manage biometric devices created via import from the AuthX Admin Panel immediately after being created.
Role Required: Owner, Administrator and User Manager.
Creating the CSV File
The CSV file can include single data fields for each AuthX user.
Allowed Fields
The fields allowed in this CSV file are:

CSV File Format
Here is a sample CSV file that you can use as a template for creating your own.
The CSV file size should not exceed 1 MB. If you need to import many biometric devices, split the information up into multiple CSV files of 1 MB or less and import each one separately.
