Read the multiple import page and had a couple questions...
1.) Do we have to list all the options in the header or just the ones we need?
2.) Can we have multiple headers if we have checks that will not use all fields?
As a sub of Q2 ... Can we have empty entries for fields we do not use if we have all the header options listed? For example:
website-test, http://www.zoho.com, 15, 10, Europe Location, Url MonGroup, P, F, , , , true, , , user agent, 2, "Maintenance, Troubleshooting", 0, "Down, Hacked", true, 0, ^adgh12*, Website TA profile, immediate notification profile, Application Team, action test 1, "0,-1", true

Hi framirez,
Please find our answers below :

All the 'Required fields' are mandatory in the header. You can add the 'Optional fields' as required.
If a field is specified in the header, it is required to provide the value for the specific field for all the monitors in the CSV.
For example, if you include monitor group(monitor_group_name) in the header, the monitor group value has to be specified for all the monitors.
2.) Can we have multiple headers if we have checks that will not use all fields?
The CSV file can have a single header only. Currently it is not possible to provide multiple headers.
As a sub of Q2 ... Can we have empty entries for fields we do not use if we have all the header options listed?
Our apologies that currently it is not possible to provide empty entries for fields that are not used.
We will look into the possibility of adding empty entries for fields that are not used and we will update this thread further.
Please let us know if you have a question or suggestion regarding the import monitors CSV option.
