To batch import classes from a .csv or .txt file select Import in the Classes Left Navigation Menu.
Before importing a class, you can select whether or not the assignments for a specific course should be copied. You can also select the campus on which they will be available. In order to import a batch of classes, you will need to create and save a .csv or .txt file that you can import. You can download a sample file if you do not have this file already created.
If you want to copy assignments from a class that already exists, you can select an existing class from the drop-down menu, and then select the specific campus to which you would like to import the assignments.
The Choose File button allows you to browse and upload a .txt or .csv file already saved to your computer or device.
When you are ready to import the class or assignment information, clicking the Import button will save your changes for you.
