When enrolling existing users (Students) to a new course via csv file upload


I'm wondering about the case if you only use the columns:

    email,role1,course1

    john@example.com,Student,newcourse


or just (if role1 is default Student)

    email,course1

    john@example.com,newcourse


and then just manually remove students from that new course if needed (if the emails are not unique in that Moodle instance)?

Are there any other side-effects from that workaround in Moodle 3.5?


The reason is that it seems difficult to get all the required user fields:

username,firstname,lastname,email

as mentioned in the docs, from users enrolled in the older existing course.


One can parse the emails from the HTML page of the enrolled users for a given course, but not the usernames.


Thanks.
