Importing Historical Skilljar Data into Salesforce

• Because of the relationships between Skilljar objects (master and lookup fields), you'll need to import each object in a specific order. For example:

A Course Progress object points to a Student, Course, and Published Course object, so these object's CSVs will need to be uploaded prior to importing the Course Progress CSV. 

• There are also few objects that have special instructions, noted with an * below. 
• In the Salesforce Data Import Wizard, when asked which field you want to match against, select to match by Skilljar ID. 

Download CSVs

You can download CSVs for each individual object from the Skilljar Dashboard. Here's where to download them. 

Backfilling Individual Objects

If you are only looking to import some of the available objects, you'll want to download the CSV files for the object itself, as well as any dependent objects. Below is a list of the custom objects with their dependencies, and the order in which CSVs need to be imported.

(For example, if importing the Course Progress object you'll need to download Student, Course, Published Course, and Course Progress CSV files, then import them in the same order.)
