Who is this article for?

Users that want to add multiple filing locations to a collection.

No elevated permissions are required.

Ideagen Mail Manager supports the creation of multiple locations using a text file (.csv), allowing you to add several filing locations to a collection efficiently.

1. Creating the CSV file

To create the CSV file, follow these steps:

1. Create a .csv file that contains a single location per line.
2. Use the following format: "Path","Description".

Note: For Office 365 locations, prefix the addresses with "SharePoint:". For other location types, include the appropriate prefix before the address. Normal file-based locations do not require a prefix.

2. Importing the CSV file into a collection

To import the CSV file, follow these steps:

1. Select Tools from the main Outlook window.
2. Select Locations.

3. Select the required collection in the left-hand pane.
4. Drag and drop the .csv file from Windows Explorer onto the right-hand pane (locations).
5. Verify that the descriptions and paths have been populated automatically.

6. Save the collection.

Important: If the path is not available, a warning symbol will be displayed in the Status column.
