Add or import users and assign courses or bundles or teams
This article goes over how to add/import users and assign them the courses, bundles or teams manually and via the bulk importer. With the Add User option, you can give access to courses and bundles to one learner at a time, and with the Import Users option, you can bulk import a list and give access to courses and bundles to all in the list in a single go.
IMPORTANT : Before importing new users into your account, ensure that you have obtained permission from each user to send them emails. If a high percentage of complaints or bounces are received, it may result in your account being blocked. To maximize your email deliverability, clean your list of invalid emails before importing.

How do users access the course(s)?
When a user is added or assigned to a team and if you have selected the option "Send assign course/bundle" the user will receive an invitation email to join your learning platform. The user can then click on the 'Get Started' button to access the content.
If the user already exists, simply selecting the option - Send assign course/bundle notification will suffice. The user will click on the Get Started button on this email. If they are already logged in, they can continue to access the content, else the platform would ask them to login by entering their login ID and password.
However, if the user did not have an account earlier, ensure to click on 'Send create password email to new users'. The user clicks on the Get Started button and they will be redirected to the website’s Login page where they first need to create a password. Once the password is created, they can simply click on the Continue button to be redirected to the dashboard.
If the user does not remember the password, they can click on forgot password on the login page to create a new one.
Important considerations
Upto 5000 users can be imported at a time.
User import requests will be processed in the background. You can only run one user import process at a time and will be notified when the process is completed.
If 5,000 users are imported at a time, this request can take anywhere between 30 minutes to 180 minutes depending upon queue size, number of courses or bundles or teams selected, and email notification selection.
A maximum of 10 courses or 10 bundles or 10 teams can be selected in a single add/import user.
Users can be added/imported into unpublished and published courses or bundles as well.
The name and email fields are required; all other fields are optional.
The dial code should not contain "+".
Expiry Date must be in DD/MM/YYYY numerical format.
Password must have a minimum of 6 characters. If you do not wish to assign a password, leave the column blank in CSV file.
Selecting 'Send create password email to new users' will only send an email to new users only and not existing users who are being re-imported into another course. If the user does not remember the password, they can click on forgot password on the login page to create a new one.
Checking the box 'Send assign course/bundle' notification will activate notifications to inform users of being assigned a course/bundle.
The create password link (Get Started button) expires in 10 days or if it is used once (whichever is earlier). If the link has expired, please direct the user to visit the website and click on 'forgot password' on the login page to reset it. Or, you can reset their password by following the steps here: How to access user settings to change the profile name, email, password and phone number? In the future, if the user wishes to access their course/content, please redirect them to visit the website and log in.
In case you just want to add the users to your website, select 'Do not assign' option. And the list will still be imported without any course or bundle or team being assigned to the user.
Please make sure there are no extra commas, periods, blank spaces, or other punctuation marks on your sheet. The addition of such characters will cause the .CSV import to display an error message until that error was removed and the sheet is re-imported. Additionally, ensure that you don't have duplicated rows of information contained within your sheet. If there is any error message you see during file upload, please recheck your file for any errors, fix them and re-upload the file.
If you wish to add/import users in two or more courses, you would need to add/import/notify the same user(s) again and select a different course.
