When adding users to a group in Blackboard Connect.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Start with a CSV file of user IDs you would like to add to a group
  2. Log in to https://connect.blackboardconnect.com/
  3. Go to "Recipients" > "Contacts"
  4. Click "Import Data" button
  5. Select your CSV file (see below for sample)
  6. Click on "Advanced options"
  7. Check the "Preserve Data" checkbox
  8. Click the "Import" button

 

Do not use "Refresh Groups"

 These have a very specific use case that is not what you want in most cases.

 

Sample CSV file

ContactType,ReferenceCode,Group
[Staff or Student],[Biola ID number],[Group name]

example:

ContactType,ReferenceCode,Group
Staff,1234567,Interterm Housing
Student,1234568,Interterm Housing
