Access to content for new team member
We just added a new user to our Articulate account. How do I give her access to all of my courses?

Hi Marianne!
Articulate 360 Teams can easily collaborate on Rise 360 courses. By adding your new user as a collaborator on your courses, you can create and edit different lessons in a course at the same time or take turns fine-tuning the same lesson.
Here's how:
- Go to your Rise 360 dashboard and open the course on which you want to collaborate.
- Click Settings in the upper right corner of the editor and select the Collaborators tab. (You can also click Share and choose View collaborators to get to the same screen.)
- Enter an email address for each team member who should have access to the course and click Invite.
- Click Close in the upper right corner to return to the course editor.
I hope that helps you!

It does help! How do I share Storyline courses?
Glad to hear, Marianne! Because Storyline 360 courses are saved to your local machine, you can send copies via email or through a file-sharing system. Check out these best practices if you have a file-sharing network available.

Also wondering a similar thing - but the key part of my question is 'ALL' my courses... we have a hundred or so at the moment and doing this 'add as a collaborator' to each course certainly isn't fun - or extensible if we bring on more people/rise licences in the future when course numbers have grown further... Any bulk ways of doing this...?
Hi Glen! Currently, there's no way to add collaborators to several courses at once. We're investigating how we can enhance the team experience with Rise 360 courses, including collaborating even more easily. I'll tag this discussion so we can keep you posted on any updates!

We are onboarding a new team member and I'm not looking forward to manually adding him as a collaborator to each of our courses.

indeed it would be good if we could select multiple courses and add 1 or more collaborators at once. Thank you for investigating that !

Thanks for chiming in, Cindy! We'll be sure to share updates here if we make changes that will help!

I have 2 new starters joining today and have just realised that I have to manually 'share' individual files, which is a nightmare considering I currently have around 100. This seems to be a request from years ago and really hope that this is added to the roadmap very soon.

Hi Articulate team, We really should have a way for bulk adding courses to collaborate with other staff.
But most importantly why can't an admin see all the courses on the account, this seems obvious from a maintenance and oversight requirement. This wouldn't even require a more complex UI of choosing which courses for which staff. If you have to have a setting then it can be just a 'let admins view and edit all course' toggle.
We are thinking of bringing on another admin person to have access to field client questions when someone is away but I'm put off by the need to go through and individually share the courses and expect the other staff to share it with them every time they create a new course! Come on Articulate.

I am not sure why we don't have any easy way to share courses within a team with Rise?
I have 4 other people in my team who I need to individually add by typing their email address in full to each course, then individually change their access from Course Collaborator to Course Manager.
It's frustrating as I have created 13 courses this year so far. So that's repeating the above process 13 times for 4 people.
We are supposed to be in this great revolution of collaboration and cloud computing, yet it seems some platforms don't want to make it easy. An easy way would be to do what Vyond does - allow you to add something to your Team's Shared Library. If you want to change the permissions to Course Manager, then this could be done by selecting the group of people and applying that level of access.
I can only imagine how frustrating it is for people in larger teams who are trying to collaborate, its a lot of admin time that we could be spending developing content, our actual job!

Been waiting for over three years for this feature. Is it ready yet?
