Importing or Exporting Predefined Tags

Constraints and Limitations

You can import a .csv file from a third party to TMS. The encoding format of the .csv file must be UTF-8.

Tag files or templates downloaded with Internet Explorer 9 cannot be imported to TMS via other browsers, and vice versa those downloaded with other browsers cannot be imported to TMS via Internet Explore 9.

If duplicate tags exist between the current environment and the imported file, the tags of the current environment will be overwritten after the import.

When you edit imported tags, the following rules need to be followed:

  • You can create up to 500 predefined tags for each account.
  • A tag key can contain a maximum of 36 characters, including digits, letters, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and at signs (@).
  • A tag value can contain a maximum of 43 characters, including digits, letters, underscores (_), periods (.), hyphens (-), and at signs (@).

Predefined tag importation does not support .csv files that have been modified in Excel files. Attempting to import such files will produce garbled characters and result in an importation failure. To edit a .csv file, open it with notepad.
