Title: Mitel 5624 Contact Import
Post by: acejavelin on November 07, 2017, 10:06:18 AM
I have gotten the Mitel 5624 phone working phenomenology well with our Broadsoft hosted platform, but can't seem to get contact imports to work.

If I add a couple contacts and export the results, the file look very straight-forward, although it has a csv extension, it does not appear to be a comma-delimited file:

VERSION;1.0;DO NOT EDIT THE FIRST TWO LINES!
Name;Mobile;Work;Other
Steve S;;222;

But when I edit it or add more entries and try to reimport, like this:

VERSION;1.0;DO NOT EDIT THE FIRST TWO LINES!
Name;Mobile;Work;Other
Steve S;;222;
Dan D;;267;
Ron S;;103;

I get a message that says "All entries in file could not be read. Please check that the file is correctly formatted."

I am just editing it with Notepad++ and resaving it with the same extension, then trying to import from a file in WinPDM.

What am I doing wrong?

LOL... I'm an idiot and figured it out. It is simply a list of semi-colon delimited entries, but You can't have a blank line at the end of the file, removed the last line that was blank, saved and re-imported and it worked fine.
