Common Issues While Using the Script

Set-up Issues

Most set-up issues are self-reporting and the issue will be shown in your terminal.

Common issues include:

• Not having config.txt in the same place as the program.
• Not populating config.txt.
• Providing the wrong URL or wrong credentials in config.txt.
• Your CSV headers are not “name, email, password”.

Need Admin Approval

• Manual Resolution:
  1. Refer to this help article to resolve this manually.
• Automatic resolution:
  1. For each different tenant in the CSV, include 1 account with the “Cloud Applications Admin” role.
  2. include a “use_as_admin” column, mark the row this account is in as true.
  3. The bulk uploader will now login to the admin marked accounts first, and attempt to accept permissions tenant-wide.
  4. The rest of the accounts will work now that the permissions are granted.

Advanced Usage

The walkthrough above is enough for most use-cases.

However, the bulk uploader tool can be fine-tuned to specific needs with flags.

Flags are arguments you pass in the command line, you can watch the following video for a quickstart.
