Bulk Add Learners

Process

Moodly provides a bulk add feature which allows you to quickly populate classrooms using a CSV file.

From the side menu select "Manage Class".

Select "Bulk Add" from the top right corner of the table.

From the bulk add screen, either drag your csv onto the area or click the area and select your csv file.

On the next screen, if your csv contains header (i.e. name, gender) make sure the "Data has headers" check box is selected

Otherwise, unselect and click "Choose Columns"

Ethnicity and Free school meals are optional

We now need to map the CSV column to the Moodly data.

Simply drag the column to the corresponding data, in the below example

A

Name

B

Gender

C

Ethnicity

D

Free School Meals

Finally select Import.

Please wait for the "Finish" button to appear.

If there are any data errors, a table will be displayed with the problems.

Data issues

If you process a file with incorrect data, like the example blow, after pressing import you will be presented with an errors grid:

Name,Gender,Ethnicicy,FSM
Learner 1,invalid,White Welsh,yes
Learner 2,female,,invald
Learner 3,female

The errors grid will tell you which rows in the CSV are invalid and which Moodly data element it refers to.
