# Use Data Loader to Extract and Load Data

Download the required SDL files and then use Data Loader to extract and load your data into the target shadow objects.

Ensure that:

- [EDA Migration Shadow Objects](https://login.salesforce.com/packaging/installpackage.apexp?p0=04t4u000000pjht) is installed in your target (Education Cloud) org
- Data Loader is installed in your source and target orgs. See [Download and Install Data Loader](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.dataloader.meta/dataloader/loader_install_mac.htm).

1. Download the SDL files from your target (Education Cloud) org:
    1. Log in to your target (Education Cloud) org.
    2. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Static Resources, and then select **Static Resources**.
    3. Select **EDA\_EDC\_Org2Org\_SDLs** from the list.
    4. Click **View file**.
        
        A compressed (.zip) file is saved to your local machine.
    5. Extract the SDL files from the compressed file.
2. Use Data Loader to export the data from your source org into a CSV (.csv) file.
