Tip: A text editor like Notepad can suffice for creating and editing simple CSV files. However, if you are working with large data, using an application like Excel is preferable.

Note: If you plan to set workspaces with no templates in the Workspace Wizard or CSV Import, you will need to setup a metadata field for NoTemplate in CAM.

This format would be:

...

Metadata name= NoTemplate

...

Type= boolean

...
