Import is available when you teach the same course within a 25-month period. You can only use the Import process when you can still see the old course on AsULearn in a past (or current) term. If it's been more than two years since you taught it, you'll need to upload and restore the backup you hopefully made and downloaded at the time. See Course Access and Retention for more information.

Q: When can I use Import instead of the Backup & Restore process?
A: It is always fastest and easiest to use the Import process. But, to use Import, the course has to be available to you currently in AsULearn. That means that it cannot be more than 25 months since the beginning of the semester in which you taught it. Since courses more than two years old are removed from the server, the Import process is not available for them. Basically, if you can find the old course in AsULearn in a past term, you can import it - so long as you role in the course is Teacher! That said, you should create and download a backup of each course you teach at the end of the semester in which you taught it. That way, if there's a greater than two-year gap before you teach it again, you can upload and restore your backup in a matter of seconds and get back to work, no support ticket required! |

If you don't see the course you're looking for in the list (it's limited to 10 courses), just use the Search box at the bottom to easily find itThen choose the course whose content you wish to import from the list. TIP: You may want to search BY TERM to find a specific version of the course you wish to import (all the way back to Fall 2019). For example, you can enter Spring 2020 in Fall 2022 in the Search field, click Search, and your course list will be limited to just your Spring 2020 offerings. Fall 2022 offerings. You can also find all available versions of a course by searching for its number, like 2300. General terms are better than more specific ones in this case.

Your course may be quite large, so it may take a few minutes. Multiple clicks may result in multiple copies of your content.
