[rt-users] bulk load into Asset Tracker possible?

[John BORIS]

There was a perl script on the old wiki but it isn't on the latest wiki
page. I have it on my system and have used it once without any problems.
It needs tweaking. I didn't want to send it out unless I have the link
to where you can see who wrote it and the caveats. I have it named as
massloadat.pl.  So far all of my searching didn't return anything. 

This link takes you to the discussion back in 2006 on this topic.

Greetings,
     Before we dive into the RT-APIs at a low level to try to figure
out how to load our several hundred rows of excel data semi 
automatically into our RT Asset Tracker instance, I just thought it
worth asking if anyone else has solved this problem (or 
started to?) and might be willing to share code or ideas on how best to
proceed.  We've got a bunch of custom fields (and 
obviously some basic fields) that we'll want to populate.  And it may
be that we have a small enough data set that doing it 
manually through the web interface ends up being a more efficient use
of time and resources, but it sure seems worth asking.

       thanks so much in advance for any hints or advice,
            ~c
