Assign Pro guide

Import file formats

Bring in the device list the team already has, then clean it up before Jamf is changed.

What this helps with

CSV, TXT, or XLSX imports that become a list you can check before making changes.

Follow these steps.

  1. Start with the cleanest identifier column available, usually serial number or asset tag.
  2. Remove blank rows, merged cells, and notes that do not belong in the import.
  3. Import the file into Assign Pro and check the detected columns.
  4. Preview matches before choosing any static group action.
  5. Fix the source list if too many rows are unclear.

Checks before you move on

  • Identifier column chosen
  • Blank rows removed
  • Detected columns checked
  • Preview run completed
