Starting an import

There are three locations where an import can be started.

On the unit page, you can import via the “Import” button that appears above the unit list.

The other two locations are within the tutorials page, to import a tutorial click on the “New tutorial” button and select Import tutorial from the drop down list.

To import an exercise click on “Add Activity” and select the Import option.

These locations make setting the destination for an import easier. For example, if you wish to import a tutorial, you may open the unit you want to import your tutorial into and start your import there. The system will assume that is the unit you want your tutorial to go into and will set the destination appropriately. Import destinations are covered in depth in the next section.

Note that you can upload any export file to any location. You don’t specifically need to click the import exercise button when you’re importing a tutorial. If you don’t, the importer will detect that the type context doesn’t match and will help you set a new destination.

Clicking any of the import buttons will open the import upload window.

To start your import, click on the browse button and locate a .myde file. Once you have selected the file, click Upload and Import to upload and start the import process.
