Import Role Access Data

Administrators can add and update system roles and specify their access permissions via the Role Access Data Loader. You must first populate in a comma-separated values (CSV) file the mandatory fields required for type of import (that is, adding a new role or updating an existing role).

To import system role data, your user role must have unrestricted access to the Role Access Data Loader feature in System Roles (Manage Features > User Manager Features).

1. Go to Manage Center > Users > Role Access Data Loader. The Role Access Data Loader page opens and lists your previous program CSV importsprevious program CSV imports, if any.

   To see previous imports from any user, select Anyone from the Uploaded By drop-down list.

3. Click + Import CSV file.
4. Click Choose File to select the CSV file to upload.

6. Select the delimiter used to separate fields in your CSV file. This can be a comma or a semicolon.
7. To create new system roles for any new Role Codes in the CSV file, select the Automatically create new roles check box.
