Internal Links in Rise Courses
I am currently developing an electronic User Guide in Rise and in Section 2 of the guide I cover System Operation. This section includes a list of topics in two columns, followed by nineteen separate blocks that cover each of the topics. What I would like to be able to do is to use the list of topics as an interactive contents list such that each topic provides a link to the appropriate block below it and takes the user directly to their topic of choice when it is clicked on in the list.
Although I am aware of how to create links to external URLs, I cannot find a way to develop internal links within a Rise course to enable me to achieve the desired outcome for my User Guide. Does anyone out there have any ideas?
If this is not currently possible, I would like to recommend it for a future upgrade as I believe it could prove a popular addition to Rise.
Hi everyone!
Great news! 🎉 The hyperlink enhancements you have been asking for are now available in Rise 360!
You can now link text or images to a specific lesson or even a specific block within a lesson, giving you more flexibility to guide learners exactly where you want them to go in your course.
This capability started in Rise Labs with links to lessons and expanded based on feedback to include links to specific blocks. It’s now out of Labs and available in Rise 360.
Thank you to everyone who shared your use cases and feedback in this discussion. Your input helped us understand how valuable more flexible navigation would be for your courses. We hope you enjoy giving it a try!

Any updates on this feature?
I don't have any updates to share right now, Roxanne. Thanks for checking in!
Yes please, I have been wanting to do this too, many times.
A bookmark feature that references all parts of the course would be great.
Please add me to the list of people to notify when this becomes available.
I note that Ned requested this over a year ago and it seems to have a lot of support. Please could you indicate if this is already on a development roadmap?
Hi Martin. This isn't on our immediate roadmap. We'll let you know if we have an update that will help!
+1 one from us as a departement, would add needed flexability to workbooks and resources
I am developing a course for students and would like to know if it is possible to embed link/trigger to a button that would move from inside an SL interaction (embedded in rise) to a lesson block within Rise course?
Many thanks in advance
Hello, College Connect!
Can you tell me more about what you hope to achieve by linking from a button inside a Storyline block to a particular place in a Rise 360 lesson?
While it's not possible to link directly to a block in Rise 360, there may be another option I can recommend!
I'll also say this would be a helpful feature! :)
Thanks for letting us know this feature is important to you, Calvin. I don't have an update for you at this time, but you're in the right place! We'll post any new information that would be helpful for you.
