- Select the desired locale > Next > Add the desired label ID > Next > Name the file > Download >
- Open the downloaded file > Change the value after the "=" to "\u00A0" > Sample: labelID=\u00A0 > Save the file >
- Learning Administration > References > Manage Labels > Label Import/Export > Import Labels > Next >
- Choose File > Next > Next > Select the desired locale (it should be the same as it was used to export the file) > Configure "Use By" > Check the "Overwrite Existing Labels" box > Finish.
