Summary:
Administrators can add, update and delete users' profile information in bulk via the User Profile
Data Loader. To get started, you can download a CSV file template and populate the required
fields offline in a spreadsheet application or text editor. The LMS provides information to help
you fill in the CSV template, such as the expected values for each field.
The user profile data imported by the User Profile Data Loader corresponds to information in
users' My Profile tab of the Settings page, accessed via their Avatar menu. It does not upload
user account data, which administrators access in the Profile tab of the User Editor. (To import
user account data, use the User Data Loader.) Therefore, the User Profile Data Loader can only
update the profile information for existing user accounts.
Specifically, you can update the following profile data:
- Education History
- Work History
- Relocation Interests
- Language Skills
The Action field in the CSV file dictates whether new information is added to one of these
sections, or whether the data is deleted.
To import user profile data, your user role must have unrestricted access to the User Profile Data Loader feature in System Roles (Manage Features > User Manager Features).
To import user group data and review previous imports, go to Manage Center > Users > User Profile Data Loader.
