# Import Users via XLSX

Import users for the initial installation via XLSX file (Excel, Open Office, Libreoffice, etc)

**Useful Knowledge**

* [User and Locations](/en/setup/user/user-concept.md)

## Add Users Using via XLSX File

For the purposes of the initial installation, importing users via a .xlsx file is an excellent option. The file *UserImport* can be found under **Appliance** > **Import** > **User Import**. Simply download the template, fill it out and upload it. Please take note of the instructions within the file.

Alternatively, you can use the *Advanced Import* option (**Appliance** > **Import** > **Advanced Import**). This option enables you to configure additional settings whilst adding the users:

* Assign IP telephones
* Assign PASCOM softphone
* Assign action templates
* Add work locations
* Create a global telephone book
* Define speed dials

As with the user import, please note the instructions contained within the file.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Only use the user import option once during the initial setup of your PASCOM cloud phone system. Additional users must be added manually. Further user imports using the user import options will overwrite the already added users.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.pascom.net/en/setup/user/user-import-xlsx.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
