Hi,
when I try to bulk import child devices from csv, the template is made of 8 fields (e.g. Blade12,Blade Server,Dell,BS2000T,Linux,CAB00577291,Server101,Slot4), but when I enter my data, I get the error "Line 1: Field(s) missing (found 8; expected 9)"

The tenant field is missing from the instructions and example for child device import. If you insert a blank field after the device role it should work:

Blade12,Blade Server,,Dell,BS2000T,Linux,CAB00577291,Server101,Slot4
