Educators often import and export materials from one space to another which helps them prepare their content ahead of time in the most efficient manner.
We have now launched an enhancement to this feature where the discussion topic is also imported along with the materials.
Overview
Note on Importing a Discussion
- Whenever a user imports a JSON file on materials, and the JSON file was created from a material page(s) that had a discussion topic, then the discussion topic will also be imported.
- The comments on the discussion will not be exported or imported, but only the topic.
- Any pre-existing JSON file that was created from a page that had a discussion topic, will also import the discussion topic, as the exporter had already included the topic, it just wasn't being imported.
- If you import content to an existing page, the discussion title does not import, but only the text is appended to the existing page. However, If you import as a new page/all materials, you see the page with its title and discussion topic which is imported.
