The document discusses migrating content and users from a CSV file into Drupal 8. It demonstrates exporting content from Drupal 7 to a CSV file using the Contentout module, then importing that CSV into Drupal 8 using the Migrate and Migrate Source CSV modules. It also shows exporting Drupal 7 users to a CSV via SQL query and importing them into D8. The presentation provides code examples and links to resources for migrating data between versions of Drupal using CSV files.
