File schema - Card Synchronization 3.2

The file data source follows the same schema as the database data source. One file is equivalent to one view in a database. A delimited text file can be created for each of the following:

• Cardholders
• Cardholder groups
• Cardholder group members
• Credentials

Each file has mandatory and optional columns, depending on what information is contained in the file.

• Mandatory columns must be included in your delimited text file, and must be filled.
• Optional columns can be excluded from your delimited text file.
• Values are case sensitive.
• For credentials using custom card formats, you must create corresponding custom card formats in Security Center.
• If you have custom fields to import for cardholders, cardholder groups, or credentials, you must add another column in the respective file.

  For each custom field you add, you must create a corresponding custom field in Security Center.

• If the delimiter is present in one of the values to import, edit the file so that the value is between quotation marks.
