Host CSV Upload

This page is still under development !!!???

Any user with access to a sheet can upload a CSV of hosts to that sheet. There are a lot of fields for hosts, and none of the fields is specifically required when you manually enter host data. However, using the CSV upload feature does require many of the host attributes. For optional fields, you should not put a space in the blank field, but leave it completely empty. Extraneous spaces can cause errors on certain fields.

Unlike the other CSV uploads, the host CSV upload does not support comments in the CSV file.
