Batch Import
Requires a Pro plan.
Batch import lets you import multiple SCORM packages at once, making it easy to migrate an entire course library into Slate.
How batch import works
Section titled “How batch import works”Batch import uses a two-phase pipeline (parse first, then import) so you can review each course before committing.
Phase 1: Parse and review
Section titled “Phase 1: Parse and review”- From your dashboard, click Import and select Batch Import
- Upload up to 25
.zipfiles at once (drag and drop or browse) - Slate parses each file and displays a summary showing section, lesson, and block counts
- Any warnings (unsupported blocks, skipped content) appear immediately so you can review before importing
Phase 2: Import
Section titled “Phase 2: Import”- Click Import All Ready to begin importing all parsed courses, or import individual courses one at a time
- Courses import sequentially with a progress bar for each file
- Optionally apply batch tags to all imported courses at once, useful for organizing a migrated library
Features
Section titled “Features”- Multi-file upload - drag and drop or browse for up to 25 files
- Mixed sources - import Rise and Slate SCORM files in the same batch
- Batch tagging - apply tags to all imported courses with autocomplete
- Sequential processing - files process one at a time with real-time progress
- Error recovery - retry failed files individually without restarting the entire batch
- Debug logs - copy detailed logs per file for troubleshooting
Status tracking
Section titled “Status tracking”Each file in the batch moves through the following stages:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Queued | Waiting to be parsed |
| Processing | Being parsed and validated |
| Ready | Parsed successfully, waiting for import |
| Importing | Media uploading and course saving |
| Complete | Successfully imported to your library |
| Error | Something went wrong. Review logs and retry. |
