CUCM BAT import phones all details - can line mode be included?

[c.fredenberg]

I am trying to import phones to CUCM (12.5 in this case). I know I can import specific details against a template that has the line mode set appropriately (Session Line Mode / Enhanced Line Mode). But I want to be able to import phones using all details and be able to set the line mode for the phones i want more than 5 lines on. I cannot find that field on exports I do or any of the BAT documentation. I tried importing a file with a column labeled "Line Mode" but it didn't like that. Has anyone tried and gotten it to work?

If you do an all details export, the field you are looking for is:  <lineMode>1</lineMode>  where 0 is Session Line Mode and 1 is Enhanced Line Mode. This line is in the "XML" column in your import/export.

You may find it easier to have two templates and two sets of BAT jobs, one for Session Line Mode and the other for Enhanced Line Mode.

I tried lineMode as one of my column headers in my csv file with the same result. "LINEMODE is not a supported field" is the exact error.

As @Maren Mahoney wrote the field is in the XML column.

”This line is in the "XML" column in your import/export.”

I misinterpreted what was being said. After adding the xml it uploaded with enhanced line mode. Thank you!
