CSV file requirements:

  • CSV must have two columns

    • Column 1 is mapped to Key (used for valued identification).

    • Column 2 is mapped to Value (visible to the users in the AccssNow form list).

  • The file must have comma-separated values.

CSV files may vary depending on geographical and regional settings. These variations primarily involve the delimiter used to separate values within the file. Here are some common types: comma (,) semicolon (;) tab (\t) pipe (|) .

AccessNow requires comma (,) separated files.
