Import a skills repository
If you have a repository backup in XML format (produced by the export function) you can restore it in your Moodle course.
Then, two situations can occur:
- This is a new skills repository for this Moodle space; it becomes available for this (local != 0) course or for all the (local == 0) courses;
- If there is an identical local version (same name, same code) – the skills repository is already existing in Moodle:
- If you choose to overwrite the existing version, it will be replaced by the imported version;
- If you choose to keep the existing version; the import process will be canceled;
Importation / exportation Formats
- XML is a textual data format representing the information as a tag hierarchies and nested data. It allows the backup and restore of skills repositories, activities and certificates.
<referentiel>

- The XHTML format is an export-type format intended for Web page display.
- The CSV is a textual format of tabular data (like in a spreadsheet).
The CSV uses a separator, in general ';' between the cells of a table.
For example:
nom;prenom;mell;ville;cours1;role1;cours2;role2;
HADDOCK;Archibald;a.haddock@moulinsart.be;Moulinsart;Navigation;professeur;
TOURNESOL;Tryphon;t.tournesol@moulinsart.be;Moulinsart;Physique;professeur;
CASTAFIORE;Bianca;la_castafiore@moulinsart.be;Moulinsart;Chant;professeur;
;Tintin;tintin@moulinsart.be;Moulinsart;Chant;etudiant;
This gives a table:
| nom | prenom | mel | ville | cours1 | role1 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HADDOCK | Archibald | a.haddock@moulinsart.be | Moulinsart | Navigation | professeur |
| TOURNESOL | Tryphon | t.tournesol@moulinsart.be | Moulinsart | Physique | professeur |
| CASTAFIORE | Bianca | la_castafiore@moulinsart.be | Moulinsart | Chant | professeur |
| Tintin | tintin@moulinsart.be | Moulinsart | Chant | etudiant |
The CSV is not really suited for nested data, as in a skills repository.
