Bulk-editing existing accounts:

Export the current account data, make changes to the file, and then upload it.

To import your templates:

  1. Log in to the Product Portal and select Users/Classes& Groups.

  3. Either click Select Document to find and upload a file, or drag and drop a file into the appropriate section—Classes/Groups, Educators, and Students. It must be a CSV file in order to be imported correctly, and you may upload 1 file in all 3 sections simultaneously.
  4. Click Verify Records.


  5. If there is a problem with the import, you will receive a red Error notification: 

    Click Download error document and open the file once it downloads. You'll see a description of what needs to be fixed. In this example, there was a colon separating two products instead of a semicolon.

    Use the X to remove the erroneous file. Then correct the error(s) in the original file, save it, and try uploading it again.
