The tag dictionary in CSV format is in your Workbench user home.
  1. Open the Tag Dictionary Manager view of the TagDictionaryService.
  2. Select the tag dictionary to update and click Import.

    Note: In the event that the framework detects an error in the CSV file, an Error window opens indicating the error and its location by row or line number.
