It describe a method to bulk import hosts by using CSV file. I have tested it in my test environment successfully. I noticed however that there is no way to import into multiple subfolders. It seems to support only a folder at a time.
The procedure is as follows: Select or create a folder into which the import should take place. Navigate to this folder (Setup > Hosts > …) and in the Hosts menu select the entry Icon to import multiple hosts in CSV file format. Import hosts via CSV file.
The only other way I know of to perform this bulk host adding to multiple subfolders is via the REST API. How I would do it is by create a text file similar to the CSV file used in the bulk import then loop the create host process from top to end of the lines in the host list file.
I would like to cinform if my understanding is correct on this before I begin working on the bulk add script. Appreciate any feedback / tips / further advise that you have to share.
The best way to import data to different subfolder is ti use the RestAPI for this. There you will beable to qualify your host for import based on folter, tags, labels aso.
