Extract Course Data Tool

Curriculum Strategy is introducing a tool that will allow catalog administrators the ability to extract all of the basic course data being housed in the catalog system.

The basic course data that will be included in the extract include:

  • Course Name
  • Course Description
  • Course Number
  • Credit Hours
  • Subject Code
  • Subject Name
  • Prerequisite
  • Corequisite
  • Credit Hours Maximum
  • Offered
  • Cross Listed Courses
  • Distribution
  • Notes
  • Active
  • Instructor

For a more customized extract, please reach out to support for more information about Custom Course APIs.

The Export Course tool can be found in the Tools option in the top ribbon.

Ensure you have selected the Catalog item from where the courses should be extracted. If that item is selected, the Tool tab will become visible. If a Catalog is not selected, the Tool tab will not be visible in the tool ribbon.

The top navigation bar showing several menu options, with the 'Tools' menu highlighted. Below it, the 'Export Courses' option is also highlighted.

If you do not have the Tools options active in your top ribbon, you can add that option by right-clicking the ribbon and selecting ‘Tools’.

The dropdown showing a list of navigation options, with the 'Tools' option highlighted near the bottom of the list.

Note: To access the tool, you must have the appropriate permissions assigned. Please reach out to support if you do not feel you have the correct permissions.

With the Catalog selected, click the Export Courses button and a CSV file will be downloaded.

The page showing the 'Export Courses' option highlighted at the top, and in the left navigation tree the '2022 Catalog' item is highlighted with an arrow pointing to it.

Due to the file being in CSV format, commas will be removed from the extract.

Please reach out to support with any questions.
