Bulk Device Upload for the Kaiterra Data Platform
For large building projects, we recommend using our Bulk Device Upload, making it easier to get all of your devices added to the Kaiterra Data Platform
Note: the building must already exist on your Kaiterra Data Platform.
That said: devices from multiple buildings can be added from the same CSV upload!
Here are the steps for using our Bulk Device Upload:
- Click here to download our CSV template
- Fill in the appropriate information for each device
- building_code
A simple abbreviation/short form code to represent the building
ie. 30 Rock might be 30R; a school might be USD123; could also be a region/state - floor_code
Floor Number
ie. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc. - space_code
Room Number -- or the designation on the floor plan
ie. 123, 201, 404, etc. - space_name
Specific name assigned to the room on the floor plan
ie. Nintendo, Gryffindor, Frodo, Shakespeare, etc. - space_type*
What type of room is the device installed in?
See the list of valid space types at the bottom of this article (they must match)
ie. kitchen, conference_room, open_workspace, etc. - space_ext_id [Optional]
If you have a Serraview ID mapping to this space
ie. serraview:123456 - device_name
[The following is a Best Practice and not a strict requirement]
You can use an Excel or Google Sheets formula to piece this together:
BuildingCode-FloorCode-SpaceName-SpaceType
ie. 30R-2-Nintendo-ConferenceRoom - device_udid
Kaiterra UDID -- if you do not have it, we can use the Serial Number to find it for you
ie. 0000-474f-4f39-b549-2ef13a45e97c - device_serial
Kaiterra Serial Number -- available on the box or on the device itself
ie. VG20D99999
- building_code
- Navigate to the "Buildings" tab, click on "Add --> Upload CSV" in the top-right-hand corner, and follow the on-screen instructions



You can also use this CSV upload to make changes to existing devices by applying the changes in the CSV and then re-uploading the file.
