Upload Destinations From a File

Cisco Secure Access provides the option to import destinations from a text file into an existing destination list. Before you can upload a file with the destinations to Secure Access, create a destination list or use an existing destination list in the organization. For information about supported destination types and guidelines, see Manage Destination Lists.

🚧

Supported files for upload

Files must be text files and must include only one destination per line. Before uploading, review your list for extra-space characters, commas, and so on. Exceptions to the format of a single destination per line can result in errors.

Procedure

1. Navigate to Resources > Internet and SaaS Resources > Destination Lists.

   

2. If you are uploading destinations to an existing destination list, navigate to the destination list and click the caret to expand the destination list.

3. If you require a new destination list for the destinations in the text file:

   1. Add a destination list. You don't need to add any destinations.

   2. Save the new destination list.

   3. Click the caret in the table row to expand the new destination list.

      

4. Click Add From File.
   The current uploader supports text files in the format of one destination per line. Excel files are not supported.

5. Select or drag and drop a .txt file that contains your destinations.
   If you want to remove the file and choose a different file, click Replace.
6. Click Add destinations.
   Supported destinations in the file are added to your destination list.
   If your bulk upload includes unsupported destinations, the upload does not fail, but only supported destinations are added.
7. Immediately after uploading the destinations, look for a pop-up at the bottom of your browser. If the file contained unsupported destinations, this pop-up is displayed.
8. To download a spreadsheet that you can use to determine which destinations failed and why, click the link in the pop-up.
9. Click Save.
