SOP on how to bulk upload and enroll users if you already added users to the system
The principle stays the same, does not matter what moodle version you are using.
- Under the site administration click users, then upload users.
- click on the example csv file to download and view how the users must be loaded on the spreadsheet
- usernames are small characters with no spaces and special characters, and you will notice the headings of the fields are all small letters
- So you can populate the fiels for username, firstname, lastname, and email
- Then you save the file as CSV
- Then you go to upload users again and load the csv file
- Then you choose settings of the users listed, e.g add ne and skip existing, or creating password etc. By default the default settings would work fine like this example. There is already a duplicate email so Moodle will skip the existing user.
- Now the user was added. And the system will send a email with their account details (because no password field was used on the excel spreadsheet, so Moodle generates a password for them). Click continue to finish.
