Enable completion tracking via csv for Totara bulk course upload

I need to upload a little over 2000 courses to Totara V2.6.

Doing this with a .csv file isn't normally a problem but I need to set "Enable completion tracking" and "Mark as In Progress on first view" to yes/checked for the courses.

Here is an example of what I have tried in my .csv file:

fullname,shortname,category,enablecompletion,completionprogressonview
COURSE NAME,COURSE NAME,1,1,1

The courses are created and uploaded but the two desired settings have no effect. I have looked here for more information on uploading courses usng a .csv, but there is no mention of the completion tracking settings.

Is it possible to set "Enable completion tracking" and "Mark as In Progress on first view" in the .csv file, and if not is there another way I can apply these settings to all the courses without having to do it one at a time?

Thanks in advance.

I'm afraid you can't do Enable completion tracking through a csv file for users as per the documentation: https://docs.moodle.org/30/en/Upload_users

You can enable completion tracking in a separated .csv file only for courses: https://docs.moodle.org/30/en/Upload_courses#Course_information_fields

You must enable activity completion for all the activities within a course and set the course completion criteria, I don't think this can be done through a .csv, I think this must be done manually.

Once you have all users uploaded and enrolled into a course, you can change all users progress on the activities directly on the database, or create a script that does the job for you.
