1. Find the backpack that you want to import. You can:
    
    - Access the backpack in your company’s version control system (VCS).
    - Download the latest released version of the backpack from Trailmaker Release. To learn more, see [Download a Backpack from Trailmaker Release](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.mth_tm_release_download.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "From Trailmaker Release, you can download the backpack ZIP file for a module or trail published in your company’s enablement site. With this backpack, your content creators can easily access the latest released version of content the next time they want to update it.").
2. Import the module backpack into your Trailmaker Content workspace by completing the steps in [Import a Backpack into Trailmaker Content](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.mth_upload_published_or_archived_content_to_tm_content.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "You can add learning content into your workspace from a backpack ZIP file that you saved or downloaded. This workflow is helpful when you want to collaborate on content that other content creators started in their own workspace. Or, follow these steps when you want to update published content or restore archived content. You can also import a content template that you downloaded.").
3. In the Trailmaker Content workspace, click the module title, or select **Edit** from the Actions menu for the module.

    1. Enter a unit title (1).
    2. Accept the suggested API name (2), or enter a unique name that you want to use instead.
        
        ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sales-mytrailhead-264-0-0-production-enus/0d6bc03d-58c7-47e8-89c9-5e00c98b5485/images/icon_note.png)
        
        Note
        
        - A unit’s API name is used in URLs, so the API name is visible to learners.
        - Each unit API name must be [globally unique](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.mth_api_names_on_mytrailhead.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Each content collection, release, trail, module, and unit on your enablement site has its own API name, which is a globally unique ID that references a content path in URLs.").
    3. For Points (3), enter the number of points that a learner earns by completing the unit’s quiz.
        
        ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sales-mytrailhead-264-0-0-production-enus/0d6bc03d-58c7-47e8-89c9-5e00c98b5485/images/icon_note.png)
        
        Note Effective September 2021, all points are automatically assigned to the General tag, and you can’t allocate points to different tags.
    4. For Time (4), enter your estimate for how many minutes it takes to complete the unit and quiz.
    5. To add the unit’s content, use the field below the formatting toolbar (5).
        
        ![Tip](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sales-mytrailhead-264-0-0-production-enus/0d6bc03d-58c7-47e8-89c9-5e00c98b5485/images/icon_tip.png)
        
        Tip We recommend that you paste only the unit’s text first, and then use the options on the formatting toolbar to insert images and videos.
    6. To add the unit’s quiz, click **New Assessment** (6). For help with quizzes, see [Create Quizzes in Trailmaker Content](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.mth_create_quizzes_in_tm_content.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Each unit in a module ends with a quiz to gauge how well users absorbed the content. Taking the quiz is also how users earn points. You create each quiz from the unit page in Trailmaker Content.").

To add another unit, click the back icon ![Back arrow](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sales-mytrailhead-264-0-0-production-enus/0d6bc03d-58c7-47e8-89c9-5e00c98b5485/mytrailhead/images/tm_content_back_arrow.png) (7) to return to the module page, click **New Unit**, and repeat these steps.
6. Add the revised module to an unpublished release by completing the steps in [Add Content to a Release from Trailmaker Content](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.mth_add_content_to_release_from_tm_content.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "After you create your module and quizzes and assign all the necessary metadata, add the content to a release.").
