Format for CSV import

[6illes]

Hi, I didn't find the documentation related to CSV Import via the web interface.
Some posts are talking about REST API and Scripts but I want a CSV Import.
Thanks

CSV import is documented here.

It's also documented in the import form itself: navigate to the import page and you'll get a list of columns (mandatory ones are in bold).

... etc

Do beware that the CSV import format is completely different from, and incompatible with, the CSV export format.

Thank you for your answer.
Now I'm facing an import problem.
Using CSV I couldn't import, so I decided to use JSON import. It's for a prefix object.
I don't succeed to import the object because it blocks at the point of the "status" parameter. It says that "Active" (but I tried also "Reserved") is not a known status.
Thanks for help

Using CSV I couldn't import

If you show the CSV, and show the error, we can correct it. But JSON is fine too.

it blocks at the point of the "status" parameter. It says that "Active" (but I tried also "Reserved") is not a known status.

The status values are "active", "reserved" (all in lower case). These are the values stored in the database, as opposed to the values displayed to the user (which do have initial capitals).

It works with "active" in lowercase
Thanks

That is a common occurrence where the actual value is not apparent without looking in the database.
Especially for structures that are less common like fhrp and virtual chassis(protocols).

Hi, during import (json) for a prefix, how can we declare a child ou parent relation ?
Thanks

[candlerb]

You don't.

If you insert 10.12.255.0/24 and separately insert 10.0.0.0/8 [in the same VRF], it's implicit that one is the child of the other. There's no database linkage. If you then insert 10.12.0.0/16, then implicitly it sits between the two.
