Emergency Addresses Bulk Add

[bhough]

Is there a way to bulk add Emergency Addresses in Teams admin portal?

Is there a way to bulk add Emergency Addresses in Powershell Teams CLI?

Is there a way to bulk add Emergency Addresses with "places"(rooms) at all?

thanks,

Yup, sure can. Check this out https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/add-change-remove-emergency-location-organization. And https://www.samanthaeasterday.com/post/enabling-emergency-calling-in-microsoft-teams

Hello Samantha,

I do like your site...

However, I don't see the "bulk" adding emergency addresses.

Each of our Campus buildings will be a Civic Address, and we are doing dynamic emergency and have ports to the "place"(our room number).

180 buildings needs uploaded.

I'm attempting to a bulk Set_CsOnlineLisLocation with no luck.  Note: I am brand new to Powershell and Teams.

Thanks for your help,

Brad

Hey Brad, you'll want to use New-CsOnlineLisLocation. For example:
New-CsOnlineLisLocation -CivicAddressId b39ff77d-db51-4ce5-8d50-9e9c778e1617 -Location "Office 101, 1st Floor"
You'll want to run Get-CsOnlineCivicAddress to get the civic address ID you want to associate it to.
But you'll want to create a csv file with the headers of the parameters above for all your locations. And then run a command similar to
Import-CSV C:\subnets.csv | foreach {New-CsOnlineLisLocation -CivicAddressID $_.ID –Location $_.Location

@bhough were you able to this figured out?

[#6]

Yes, with your advice. Successful. To confirm, the column header must match exactly the $_.ID and be ID or contain ID, i.e. CivicAddressID?

[#7 · Accepted solution]

Great to hear. And yes, the column headers in your csv need to match exactly in the script or you'll get an error for the parameter not found.

@samanthaeasterday - how do you get the ID number before creating the address?

[#9]

@schu42 -are you creating new place (location) or new civic address? if creating a place, you get the civicaddressid it will be assigned under with get-csonlineliscivicaddress cmdlet first.
