A new feature in SP 15 allows you to download the group membership. Export a CSV (comma-separated value) file containing groups and users to your computer. You can export your existing group and group members, reorganize as needed offline, and then import them to make changes.
Export Membership
- Inside the course, go to Users and Groups. Expand the list and click on Groups.
On the top right corner, click on Export.
From the list of options select one of the following:
- Groups Only
- Group Members only
- Groups and group members
- Check the box to include header row.
Click Submit and the process will be queued and you will receive an e-mail when it is finished with the data saved in a zip file.
Looking at the Data
- Click on the E-mail link and download the file to your computer.
- Once the file finishes download, right click on it and extract the contents.
- Open the csv file.
Importing a Membership File
