The first two rows of the upload template must not be removed or modified, or the upload can't be processed. We have included one row of examples of acceptable values. You must remove the examples row and replace it with your entries. Any additional columns you add are ignored and not processed. The required columns are listed first.

The format of the column headings is &lt;*Item name*&gt; [PropertyName] &lt;*Required or blank*&gt;. For example, “Name [displayName] Required.” Some older versions of the template might have something like “Name (example: Chris Green) [displayName] \*”. For groups, format is the same but you have the option to decide which identifier you use. An example of one such column heading is "Member object ID or user principal name [memberObjectIdOrUpn] Required”.
