As a privileged administrator, you can add
or update the credentials, credential pools, and identity providers,
that are specified in the comma-separated value (CSV) file with the
administrative console. You cannot upload managed instances with the
administrative console.
Before you begin
The privileged user that uploads the CSV file must have the
appropriate permission.
About this task
If a credential or credential pool exists in the
credential vault,
IBM® Security Privileged Identity Manager uses the settings in the CSV file to modify the
credentials, identity providers, or credential pools. If there is no setting change for a
credential, identity provider, or credential pool, that entry is skipped.
If you are uploading a
CSV file with defined managed instances, use the Service Center instead. See Uploading a CSV file for application services with Service Center.
Procedure
- From the navigation tree, click . The Upload CSV File page is displayed.
- Optional: In the Upload Name field, type a name to identify the upload operation.
- Click Browse to locate

to the credential vault.
- Submit the request for uploading the CSV file in one of
these ways:
- To submit the request immediately, click Submit Now.

your task. If the format of the CSV file is incorrect, you receive
an error message. Correct the error and submit the request again.
