Import masive students to course

[Ovnicraft]

Hello i recently see a tread how to import a course, i get a specific requirement about import data.

We has planned a course to get 250k students and 150k are confirmed and we want to import them via gzipped, csv, xml.

I dont know if already exist something like that and i was thinking in solution.

In Studio, i choose a course and under Tools a menu "Import Students" to accept gzipped or csv file.

Thanks for share ideas !

Regards,

Actually there's some 'enroll' functionality in the LMS 'Instructor Dashboard'. Studio is really for just defining courseware and not managing enrollments. 

I'm not sure if we've implemented in the LMS 'bulk enrollment' (via upload of a .csv) yet or if it's just a form to individually enroll email addresses. Maybe someone else can chime in one way or another.

If that feature is not there yet, it should be easy to add - I understand that you are a Django/Python developer. However, I'm pretty sure those email address will already have to be registered by the end-user as we require a email-loopback verification of the email address before considering users to be 'active'.

If you take on that feature work, please submit the feature as a pull-request back to the edX repo so that everyone can enjoy the new feature.

Also, if you run a course with that large of an enrollment, we'd love to hear more about it.

Good luck and best wishes

Hi, you need edit edit this file

 # Show a section in the membership tab of the instructor dashboard

    # to allow an upload of a CSV file that contains a list of new accounts to create

    # and register for course.

    'ALLOW_AUTOMATED_SIGNUPS': False,

Hello,

Oh it sounds interesting, I will test it tomorrow! Thank you!

Btw I didn't find any documentation about how it works (format of the csv file, etc)

Do you know if it exist somewhere?

Hello, 

It works well :)

I just have another question, can I attribute a password directly in the csv file (not safe I know)

Is there any way to manage the password for every account created?

[ANDRIANASOLO Tiavina]

Hi,

I'd like to know, how can I manage the password for the user create by importing a csv file?

Is there a default password?

Thanks

Hi....can you send me how you have imported ? Can you please send the procedure...

[ANDRIANASOLO Tiavina]

Hello,

First of all:

Have you setup your smtp service? http://learning.perpetualny.com/blog/reliable-email-on-open-edx

If so:

in /edx/app/edxapp/edx-platform/lms/envs/common.py

#Edit this part ~ line 268

# Show a section in the membership tab of the instructor dashboard
# to allow an upload of a CSV file that contains a list of new accounts to create
# and register for course.

'ALLOW_AUTOMATED_SIGNUPS': False, #change this to True

And then you can use the functionnality this way: cf Page33.pdf
It's in french sorry, you can ask me further information if you want
