Custom property import doesn't work in 8.0.2...?

willhepptemp

Has anyone else had problems importing custom properties since upgrading to 8.0.2? I've got custom properties that I'm trying to upload from a CSV which used to work in 7.x but no longer import at all since upgrading. I thought I saw a post or two that had the same ring to it but thought I'd ask anyway...

Not sure what the exact issue you are having, but below are the steps to import custom property data- 

To import custom property data:

1. Click Start > SolarWinds Orion Network Performance Monitor > Advanced Features > Custom Property Editor.

2. Click File > Import, and then select Import from Comma Delimited File or Import from Text File as appropriate.

3. Navigate to the file that contains your custom property data, select it, and then click Open.

4. Select the delimiter that separates the data in your file.

5. If your data file contains a header row, check First row contains field names.

6. Specify the characters that may surround text fields in your file, and then click Next.

7. Select the data table that has the custom properties into which you want to import your data, and then click Next.

8. Use the drop down menus to select the key field from your file on the left and the corresponding field of the NPM table on the right, and then click Next.

Note: Depending on the data in your file, you may need to specify multiple key fields so that the import wizard to properly matches your data to the NPM table fields.

9. Specify the fields from your file on the left that you want to import by clicking corresponding blank NPM cell on the right, and then select the target NPM field that you want your data field to populate.

Note: Click the NPM cell to enable a menu. Use the menu items to select the target NPM field that you want your data to populate.

10. If you have specified all cell matches your data and the NPM database, click Import.

11. If your import is successful, confirm the count of successfully imported rows, and then click OK.
