Importing Users?
December 27, 2007, 06:30:27 am
Newbie question.

I've just set up CiviCRM 1.9.12432 with Drupal 5.2.  I've import a membership list of a few hundred records into CiviCRM without any problems.  I also want to set up user accounts for all of the members.  Do I need to import the list into Drupal, and then sync, or is there a simpler approach that I am missing?

Thanks,

Joe

Old info:

If you figure out the best way to do this now, please update the documentation.

My guess the basics will be:
(1) Export your list from CiviCRM
(2) Import the list into Drupal (http://drupal.org/project/user_import)
(3) Make sure the matching functionality (matching CiviCRM contacts to Drupal users) runs correctly.
