Import a device list to Profile Manager on Mac
Instead of adding devices to Profile Manager one at a time, you can upload a file in comma-separated value (.csv) format.
After the file is uploaded, placeholders for each of the devices appear in the device list. The file has certain requirements and options:
The column titles can’t contain spaces.
The device name and at least one additional identifier is required for each device.
The file can be a mix of any number or type of character identifiers for each device name and can contain kanji characters.
iOS requirements
For iOS devices, these identifiers appear in Settings > General > About and in iTunes in macOS 10.14 and earlier and the Finder in macOS 10.15 and later when the device is connected:
DeviceName
SerialNumber
IMEI
MEID
UDID
In addition to DeviceName, one other identifier is required.
macOS requirements
These identifiers appear when you choose Apple Menu > About This Mac:
DeviceName
SerialNumber
Apple TV requirements
These identifiers appear on Apple TV when you go to Settings > General > About. Press or swipe up on the remote until the ID is displayed:
DeviceName
Bonjour Device ID (similar to a Media Access Control (MAC) address ID, such as ab:12:ab:12:ab:12)
Import the file

sidebar, select Devices.Click the Add button
, then select Import Placeholders.Select the .csv text file, then click Choose.
