You can use an existing question list saved as a CSV file and import it into Ask iManage.

Example CSV file

The CSV file requires two columns:

  • Name: The short name of the question.

  • Question: The actual question that the Ask iManage uses to try and figure out the answer.

You may also include Type, Structure, Detail, and Enum in the CSV file.

You can export an existing question list from Ask iManage and save it locally on your device or you can create a CSV locally with the two mandatory columns and import it to Ask iManage.

To import a question list, do the following:

  1. Browse to the Ask iManage side panel or the Ask iManage page. For instructions about how to browse to either of these, refer to Accessing Ask iManage in iManage Work at cloudimanage.com. If you've opened the document in Microsoft Word, open the Ask iManage panel in Microsoft Word. For instructions, refer to Asking questions in a document.

  2. Select Question list to display the Question list dialog.
