Exporting a Brightpspace Package
WARNING: Copying course content works best at the whole course level. Copying smaller portions of the course, such as Modules or HTML Templates, can cause unexpected results, such as broken links, missing images, and broken content.
Be aware, however, that Copying an entire course will transfer the origin course’s Calendar as well. This will cause certain course-specific Calendar entries, such as Webex or TEAMS Meeting events and manually created entries, to copy over to the destination course.
To avoid unwanted course items, we recommend following the “Copy Specific Course Components” method below and selecting every component except the Calendar. Any dates generated by tools, such as Assignments and Quizzes, will create new entries in the destination course.
The Brightspace Package is the standard export for Brightspace LMS, it contains all the necessary resources you need to share your course with another Brightspace site.
