Assign License Bundles from File

If you want to directly assign a license bundle to numerous user accounts, you can avoid assigning them to the license bundle by using the Import License Assignees method available for each license bundle. This makes it easy for you to download the users in your Azure AD and then upload that file, with modifications as needed, to license bundle.

This method takes in a delimited flat file of user accounts with the first row containing the field names, such as UserPrincipalName and JobTitle. Once the flat file is uploaded and submitted, all accounts in the file are processed by the Fulfillment Queue and granted licenses in Azure by being added to the appropriate license fulfillment group.

How to assign license bundles from file

1. On the navbar, click Azure License Manager to expand it and then click Manage Assignments.

   

   
   

2. Select the License Bundles tab and search for license bundle to which you want to add the assignee.

3. Click the License Bundle link for the target bundle.

   

   
   

4. On the General tab of the License Bundle Details page, click the License Assignees accordion to expand it and then click Import License Assignees.

   

   
   
   This initiates the Assign License Bundle From File workflow.

   

   
   

5. In the workflow form, type the field delimiter for the flat file in the Delimiter field. Comma is the default.

6. Click Browse and select the file with the user accounts you wish to assign to the license bundle. Once you have selected a file, the Browse button is replaced with "File is Selected" text and the Load CSV button becomes active.

   

   
   

7. Click the Load CSV button.

   The form updates to display the data in the flat file. The column headers are shown in the text above the drop-downs, while the records are shown in the grid.
   

   

8. Map each of the required fields from the imported data to the appropriate EmpowerID account field. To do so, type the name of the required field in the drop-down below your related headers and then click the field to select it.

   

   
   
   For accounts map the following Azure Account fields to EmpowerID Account fields:
