It is possible to import an address book list from and Excel Spreadsheet rather then typing in all of these names, addresses and phone numbers manually from the phone?  even a web portal where I type this information in would be easier than doing so from the phone.  I have a Voice Center 3000.  THANKS for any assistance with this!

 

Sincerely,

Hello Clarke ,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

I am not aware of such product but we do sell a Polycom Voice Station 300.

 

All analog phones, apart from the SoundStation Duo, do not have a Web Interface as they are not IP based.

 

Therefore you are required to manually add the phone numbers you want stored on the system.

 

I have in addition deleted your double post as it contained the exact same question.


Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.

Thank you for your rapid reply!!  Also thanks for removing the double post.  I saw the "E-mail me with responces" as I was pressing post, and I could not go back and check this box

 

I am a little confused . . . The  Polycom  VVX300, which is what I have (sorry for the mis naming)  is ip addressable; I am able to log onto it via my web brouser and IP address folled by :2006.  Please clarify your answer because I am a little confused by your statement that this phone is not IP based . . .

 

Thanks,

Hello Clarke,

Ihave moved your post as you posted in the analog phone section.

 

The VVX 300 is indeed a SIP VoIP Phone but none of our phones currently offer the possibility to import a Excel or CSV sheet for phone numbers.

 

You can convert a CSV file into the correct format as described in this SDK post => here <=

 

Please let me know if you do not have access to the above.

Steffen:

 

OK, thanks for moving!  I guess I'm not real good with these forum things!  :-0   I pressed the "here" link on your post, but it took me to a page that was not there.

 

http://community.polycom.com/t5/Polycom-Endpoints-Forum/SCRIPT-Automatic-000000000000-directory-xml-...

 

It says the message is not there . . .  see attacment . . .

 

Thanks,

I have vvx 300.  I am wanting to upload contacts rather than creating and saving each contact one at a time.  Is this possible? If so, what are the steps?  I read the post below, but it was unclear to me as to whether converting an .CSV file to .XML file would accomplish this task and if so what are the steps to upload.

 

I just can't imagine that in 2015 Polycom phones would not have a Contact upload feature.

 

Thanks!

Hello Ivria,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

Even in 2015 our Phones do not have the capability to import a CSV file or other easier method via the Web Interface to add Speed Dials.

 

This has simply not yet come up as a major request and therefore has not been added. Historically our phones are always provisioned by a SIP Platform and therefore they would simply load their directory file.

 

The above linked post shows an Perl script example which you can utilize.

 

There is a Feature request already placed within Polycom Accept 360 ID: 78907

Could you kindly go ahead and contact your Polycom reseller so more interest in the feature can be registered ?.

Best Regards

Then what? The script creates the file ... how do you get it into the phone?
