## Importing material from another site you own

Note: To complete the procedures in this document, you must be assigned a role having the necessary permissions. To determine your role, follow the directions in Participant roles. To view a list of permissions associated with a given role, see Permissions, roles, and tools. For a basic understanding of roles and permissions, see Permissions and Roles: Overview.

For any course or project site you create, you can import content from other sites you own. You can also combine material from more than one site. To do so, follow these steps:

1. In the menubar of the destination site, click `Site Info`.
2. At the top of the Site Info screen, click `Import from Site`.
3. Check the box next to the site that contains the source material. You may choose more than one site. Then, click `Continue`.
4. Under the name of the site(s) you selected, check the box next to each tool that contains your source material. If a box is grayed-out, it means the corresponding tool is not available in that site. Then, click `Continue`.

Note: Your newly imported materials are initially saved as drafts, which means they are not immediately viewable by participants. To make them viewable, you must post them. For instructions, see the following documents:

- Posting an assignment previously saved as a draft
- Posting an announcement previously saved as a draft
- Posting a discussion topic or reply previously saved as a draft
