HOW TO IMPORT CUSTOM HEIGHT AND WIDTH USING CSV FOR RDP
Disabled
Hello,
Can someone tell me how to import a custom height and width when using a CSV file. I've tried looking at the XML file and used different fields but I can't get the screensize to work. Everything else works besides the screensize.
I work with 30+ RDPs and I want them all to have the same screen size when I import them with the CSV file.
I've tried looking on this forum but information is very limited about all the fields we can use.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
is it mandatory that you import the custom sizes with the CSV? If you just import once, you could use the batch edit afterwards to set the custom width and height for the specified RDP sessions.

I'm using the free version. It doesn't have the batch edit option
Hello,
ah ok then it is mandatory ;)
It looks like that the "ScreenSize" parameter import are not correct - i run into this error:
System.InvalidCastException: Ungültige Umwandlung von "System.String" in "Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager.ScreenSize".

Maybe the support can reproduce the import issue. Attached my test csv.

Hello,
It's easier to import your CSV with the help of a RDP template that has the appropriate height and width already configured in the template.

However, the templates are not available in the Free Edition of RDM, you would need to use the Entperprise Edition to accomplish this.
The Enterprise Edition can be use in trial mode for free for 30 days if you want.

How did this help me? Why not just give me the appropriate fields instead? I don't need the enterprise edition for what I need to do. That would be overkill.
Hello,
We've made a change internally that should correct the issue. It will be available in the next minor update of RDM Free and Enterprise. Using the sample CSV you provided, I can import it without any issue.

Many thanks Hubert!
