I have searched through the community but haven’t found an answer to this. We have quite a few badges and it would be painful to add them all individually so was wondering if there’s a way to do a bulk import? Thank you in advance for any help and tips!

In User Overview, Award Badge is a bulk action you can apply. However, you’d need a way to filter all the users to apply that badge to only those who should get it. 

The easiest way to do what you’re looking to do would be to assign them via the API

Here’s how I would do it with Zapier (but other tools should be similar)

  1. Organize an excel/google sheet table of who should get what badge
  2. Build a simple automation that assigns that badge

The API requires that you have the userId and badgeId numbers. You could either populate that in #1 or build the lookup of the userId as part of your automation for #2.

Hi ​@DannyPancratz  

 

thanks for the reply! I thought it could be done via API. But since I’m totally unfamiliar with the technical side of it, do we need to add the badges in control panel first or can we just use the API?

Yes, you would need to create the badge in the control admin side first. I don’t see a way to do that via the API. Creating it in control will give you the badgeId (it’s a bit hidden in the URL when you’re editing the badge)

I see. That was actually what my question was, if there was a way to add them all in one go in admin, but I guess we just need to dedicate some time :) Thank you for your replies!

Ahhh I didn’t read your question closely enough. 

No way to do that yet, unfortunately.
