How To Import Courses From A Linked Account

This article will guide you through how to import courses from a linked account

Linked accounts can be useful to admins as you may be working on multiple projects on EdApp at one time or you may be part of a large organization that has a 'sandbox' account and a 'production' account. 

You will need to reach out to us on live chat about setting this up or via support@edapp.com

Note: This is only available if one or both of your admin accounts are on a paid plan. Check out our pricing plans here: Pricing

A word of caution with this feature, it is a one-way relationship between the 'sandbox' account and the 'production' account.

When you reimport a course that has already been imported, it will overwrite rather than making a copy.

If you want to maintain the original in the 'production' account, we advise making a copy of the changed course in the 'sandbox' account. You will then need to import the copy into the 'production' account as this will now be recognized as a different course. 

 

Step 1: Go to the courses page and click the '+ Create' icon to reveal a drop-down menu.
