How to Migrate a Skool Group to Sparkforge Community

The Skool Importer copies members and posts from an existing Skool group into a Sparkforge Community. Real-time progress, validation, and an editable member CSV make the migration recoverable instead of one-shot.

What the importer moves

• Group members
• Community posts (linked back to the imported members)

Step 1: enter your Skool group details

1. Open Sparkforge Group Settings.
2. Choose Import from the left menu.
3. Provide the Group Slug, Admin Email, and Password for your Skool account.
4. Click Confirm to start the import.

Step 2: prepare member data

The system generates a CSV with profileSlug, firstName, lastName, and email. Some members may be missing emails.

• Download the CSV and fill in any missing email addresses.
• Use Refresh user list if your Skool group changed since you started.
• Do not edit profileSlug — the importer uses it to identify members.

Step 3: upload the completed CSV

1. Click Select File and upload your updated CSV.
2. The importer adds valid members and shows a count of successes and failures.
3. Fix any flagged rows and click Try Again to retry just those members.

Step 4: migrate posts

After members are imported, the system prompts you to import community posts. Track progress in real time. Posts only migrate for members who imported successfully — orphan posts are skipped.

Tips that prevent rework

• Re-sync members right before downloading the CSV if your Skool group is still active.
• Validate emails before upload — missing or wrong emails are the most common failure.
• Run member import to completion before kicking off post import.
