⚠️ Avoid importing content into a published course—this can cause data loss that often can’t be recovered without help from your Canvas Administrator.

You have two options:
-
Drag and drop the downloaded cartridge file into the upload area, or
-
Click Choose File, browse your computer, and select the file manually.

Under Content, choose All content.
✅ These are the recommended default settings. Adjust only if needed.

6. Begin the Import
Click + Add to Import Queue to add the file to the import queue.

7. Monitor the Import Status
Canvas will display the import progress. Once completed, you’ll see a confirmation, shown in the next step.
