Hi everyone,
I was creating multiple users accounts using a csv file. I included a default password that I normally use. It worked fine until I realised that when the users logged in they won't prompted to change the password. Is there a way to force all users in a course to change their password?
Best regards
Terry
Hi Terry,
Uploading users via csv file can be used to update information as well as creating new accounts. To force users to change their password, set the password field to changeme. For more details, please see the documentation Upload users.
I saw that with the changeme in the documentation. I ended up sorting it out. When I upload the csv, I set a default password. I didn't realize when you upload the file one option after the prechecks is to indicate whether to force a password change or not (not sure how I missed that) for a new or existing user.
This bulk upload has saved me a lot of time in setting up my courses for my new students.
Thank you for the response Helen.

Good to hear that you've sorted things out Terry. Thanks for the reminder of the option to force a password change or not - I'd forgotten about that!
