You can import devices from a CSV file.

Is there a way to assign devices to Groups or Customers through the csv import?

Backdraft007 commented 3 months ago

As I can see, it is not possible.

May you can use the API to import devices.

I guess you can import devices as tenant owner with customer and groups in additional attributes. Then you can use a rule chain using "change owner" and "add to group" nodes according to these attributes..
