Command line/mass import of .BES files

Customizations

(imported topic written by SystemAdmin)

I have been searching the docs and the forum on ways to import .BES files but I cannot seem to find a “mass” import tool. The only way I have seen is using the console. Is this the only method, or is there some funky tool :slight_smile:

Thanks

You can just click on them - one at a time or in multiples - in Windows Explorer and open them.

Edit:

I just realized you can do the same thing through the console when using File | Import like you were already doing.

If you can figure out how to append them all to each other properly (proper xml-wise that is) then you can make one big file that imports all at the same time.

Thanks for the feedback.

I have another question, but I think I will post to a new discussion. :slight_smile:

Hey martinc,

You can import and BigFix file using besimportfile and the BigFix Platform API:
