Configuring Import/Export

The Import/Export allows you to import/export data in CSV format for a particular list type (Blocklist/Ratelimit/Redirect).

Note:

You can only import/export files in .csv format. Maximum file size allowed is 10 MBytes.

Figure 4-12 Import Export Page

From this screen, you can:

• Number Prefix: You can enter prefixes of the phone numbers to save the data for exporting and importing. The Blocklist information is in the international format without a leading + or leading zeros.

  If you use a different numbering scheme in your network, provide the prefix to prepend to the international numbers or a regular expression to transform the numbers.

• Import: Import either Blocklist, Ratelimit, or Redirect lists. You can select the required option from the drop-down list and Select file from your system and click Upload for importing the file.

• Export: Export either Blocklist, Ratelimit, or Redirect lists. You can select the required option from the drop-down list and click Export for exporting the file.

A Note on Expire Column in the .csv File

During an import of user entries for a specific list from a .csv file, the value in the Expire column of the .csv file determines the expiry criteria for a user entry imported. Here is an extract of a .csv file being imported:
