CSV upload - application data

This document steps through the process of uploading your accounts and permissions for applications to Zilla via our CSV upload feature.

Zilla adapts to your CSV format with flexible mappings. We believe that CSV files should not be modified, as they can result in compliance failures around accuracy/completeness, and chain of custody. There is no need for you to rename your column headers, or match our attribute names. Simply select the attributes in your document that should correspond to Zilla attributes.

Note: This walk-through is intended as a guide for application CSV uploads and not directory CSV uploads. For directory CSV uploads, visit here: CSV upload - directory - Zilla-Support - Confluence (atlassian.net)
