Is there an export/import functionality for groups and group enrollments?

Hello,
I was playing around with the groups section of Brightspace and could not find if it is possible to export and import groups. Also bulk enrolling students to groups is somewhat hidden and could be a bit more streamlined (but may be a learning curve for myself
)
- Creating groups is pretty straighforward
- Creating nested groups (groups within groups) is somewhat available, but is more creating groups FROM groups instead of a hierarchie of groups. Case: Creating Assignment groups within a Seminar Group
- Exporting the groups and enrollments is not available, same with importing a csv or xls to creat groups. Is this in Brightspace or not a functonality?

Hi @Michiel.F.5926
Could you please check this previous thread, which may contain answers to your question? -
Hi @Dmitry.L.956 ,
Unfortunately not, the thread only covers copying from other courses, not a function where you can export the groups to an Excel format, edit it there and import the groups and enrolments (or skip the export and import groups immediately with a file to create them in bulk without a prior course.

You can export the classlist with group membership option to Excel, then reformat that into a batch file to re-enrol?
