Hello all,

I am trying to import users but I have one small issue, I'm hoping. Our formatting for Display name has always been lastname, Firstname but because of the extra comma in the display name column the import fails. Is there a way that I can get the comma to be ignored?

Hello WLS-ITGuy,

Thanks for posting in Microsoft community.

Do you follow the steps in this article? We need to manually modify that CSV files. 

This is an example.

User Name, First Name, Last Name, Display Name

******@domain.com,Nerissa,Le,Nerissa Le

We cannot add extra comma in the display name, And according to the setting, this can not be ignored. Sorry for the inconvenience.

If you still cannot import users via csv file, please provide some screenshots of the issue, thanks.

Best regards,

Nerissa
