Importing Endpoints into Groups
If you are adding a large number of endpoints to a group, importing a list of endpoints can be faster than selecting them individually within the Membership dialog.
Import Rules

- Using the page filters to display the endpoints you want to add to your group.
- Click Export.
- Open the exported .csv file and copy and paste the endpoint names into the Import dialog. Add a comma between each name.
