50 groups were deleted by mistake. Please don't ask how.
So from a 2 weeks old backup, we're able to extract a CSV from civicrm_group and civicrm_group_contact
group_id, name, contact_id, email
We would like to reimport the groups and their assignation to contacts. The contacts are already in the system normally. We would not want duplicate users
Afraid of simply going to the civicrm_group_contact table and just filling it through phpmyadmin
Any tip? Thanks!
If you are confident the users are all there, you could do an import with the CSV dump you mentioned, using the Group ID and Contact ID.
1) Batch import the groups using the API csv Import module.
2) Assuming the Group IDs could be imported and match up, you could import the users via their internal IDs. Instead of selecting "Group" for the Entity To Import (as in step 1), you can import "GroupContact" and match up the Group ID field and the Contact ID field.
