Sooo... is content library 360 something users can add content to?
Jul 13, 2020
First of all the UI is frustrating because every time I try to go into Content 360 to "see what's there" it tries to get me to buy it. I already pay two grand a year for this stuff, why should I buy it again?
I just want to log into it an look under the hood.
anyway, i hope someone can help... I have hundreds of videos and audio clips and tens of thousands of images I want to load into one central repository of information.
Judging by the name "Content 360" this seems the perfect solution, but as far as I can tell, it's only content FROM articulate, not a central warehouse for ALL content a developer might use. So how's this supposed to work? I want to put all my content in one location so my other developer can access it.
thanks
Jim

Thanks but no. I don't want to store media in a storyline file -- I want a repository of my company's media that we've shot and accumulated over the years to be in a central location so that we can query it and pull from it. I appreciate the reply Melanie but I don't get how this is related to what I'm looking for -- this allows me to insert media as part of a specific storyline file... but not in a centralized library.
A good name for it would be "Content 360" which is what I thought I'd be getting but it only seems that that's articulate content, not user-content.
but just for yucks I followed through and imported 20 images into a "media library" but it was wrapped within a storyline file -- so when I saved that file that content was only found in relation to that .story file. When I created a NEW .story file -- the media library is blank.
I'm thinking that Articulate doesn't offer that service, perhaps I can house all my media on AWS and find some way to search and pull from that location. Not sure yet, I would really appreciate any additional feedback. Tks, Jim
Hi Jim,
Matthew is correct, but based on your description, Team Slides may be the collaboration you're looking for. This is great for reusable slide content.
Okay, thanks. Yeah, wasn't what I was looking for. I don't want to create slides, just want a content library that encompasses all of my content and content from Articulate (with some segregation of course) so I'm covered -- i.e. the title "Content 360" sounds to be an apt description of what I need but obviously Articulate is only showcasing its own content in there, not a library of my own. In a pinch, sure, I can use team slides but that's not really an elegant solution (of course unless I were repurposing slides and little micro-content [or bigger] things I wanted to reuse in Articulate products. I just want a bucket (i.e. AWS buckets is something I'm looking at) where I can deposit thousands of pieces of audio, video, and images I've developer or shot over the years).
thanks
Jim
