Updating Call forward all CSS for all DN's using BAT

[VandanaA31628]

I am trying to update Call forward all CSS for all extensions, about 5000+ in my cluster. I did not find any option to upload a CSV file and update Call forward all CSS. Is there any option wherein I can set Call forward all CSS for all DN's? Call forward all CSS is different for different Dn's. CUCM 11.5

If you need to set different CSS for different DNs then there is no built in function in bulk that you could use for that. You'd either have to do an export of phones with the Bulk Export function and then extract the CSV file from the TAR and edit it based on your requirement, put the updated CSV into a TAR file, upload it as an import file to CUCM and run an import task. Or figure out how to update this with AXL. The later would require you to do some development to use the AXL api.

See this post for more details on export and import. https://community.cisco.com/t5/unified-communications/bulk-edit-quot-call-forward-and-call-pickup-settings-quot/td-p/2719822

You can do this through the bulk admin.

Yes for sure, but only if you want the same CSS on all DNs that you update.
