Sharing content with Accounts

Upon the creation of an Account, no courses will be initially accessible, requiring the content to be shared with it first. This process informs Content Controller about the specific content that the designated Account(s) should have access to.

There are two methods for sharing: either from the Content page, allowing simultaneous sharing with multiple Accounts, or alternatively, from the Account itself, enabling exclusive sharing with that specific account.

  2. Then, while inside the chosen Account choose the Content tab in the navigation

  1. Click + Add in the top-right corner of the screen. Here you are presented with three choices. Add Content, Copy Folder and Create Folder. Since were are looking to add Content choose Add Content.

  2. Select each course you’d like to add to the account in the Available Content column on the left and use the ▶ button to move them into the Selected Content column.
