New in Rise 360: Team Folders (Beta)
Update—October 5, 2023: Find out what we've learned from your feedback and how we're improving team folders
We're thrilled to announce that the Team Folders beta is now live in Rise 360! With it comes an enhanced dashboard experience, convenient personal organization in My View, and even more ways to collaborate with your team (as well as external teams).
Updated Dashboard
The new Rise 360 dashboard sidebar organizes content into sections: My View, Personal, Team, Deleted Items, and External Connections (if you're working with external teams).
Courses you've created alone—without any collaborators—appear in the Personal section, and courses you’re building with other collaborators appear in the Team section. When you add a collaborator to a training item, it moves into the main Team section automatically. Only collaborators on the item can see it there, so don’t worry about others accessing it.
You can create folders and subfolders in each section. And now, when you move something to a folder, it's only visible in that folder!
My View
With My View, keeping track of items you're currently working on is a snap. You can add specific items for easy access and create folders in the My View section to help organize things further. Content and folders in the My View section display only for you but can contain both personal and team items.
For the launch of the Team Folders beta, we've preserved your previous All Content view in this section. All the training items and folders that were there prior to today's launch have been added for you. This way, you can easily reference your previous view. Clicking an item in My View takes you directly to it.
Update 10/5: Now, you can move the original item without having to leave My View. Just click the more icon and select Move file. Select a location or create a new folder, then click Move.
Personal and Team Folders
With Team Folders, content created in Rise 360 is added to the section or folder you're currently in. If you're in the personal section, your training appears there. If you're in the team section, it's created there.
Collaborators can now be assigned at the folder level, saving you time. When you create content in a team folder, it automatically inherits the collaborator permissions applied to that folder. This can even be everyone on your team! All you have to do is select the Share menu option for a folder or item, then select Everyone and assign them collaborator status. Note that the current editor role is the same as the previous collaborator role.
External Connections
If you work with other teams in Rise 360, you'll see new team folders for them as well in the External Connections section. The folder names might be different from what you're used to seeing. That's because Rise 360 now uses the actual name of the organization as it’s listed in account management. This is true for your team as well. An Articulate 360 admin for the external team can modify it with the Edit Organization Name option in account management.
All Rise 360 users have access to the enhanced dashboard and My View feature. If you’re an Articulate 360 Teams subscriber, you also have access to the new Team section. And if you don’t have Articulate 360 but want to try out this feature, you can start a free 30-day trial.
We're excited about the Team Folders feature because it'll allow teams to work together even more easily. And we're releasing it in beta so your feedback can guide us as we continue to develop it.

This is great. Is there a way to edit (add or remove) team members once the folder has already been created?
- KarlMullerCommunity Member
Hi Colleen,
Hover the cursor over the three dots to the right of the folder name.
Select Folder Share Settings.
You can add or delete team members on this page.
- ColleenSasserCommunity Member
There it is! Thank you!
- karlcarlCommunity Member
May be it is possible, as it is easy to add or remove any member.
Hi Laura!
You can find all of your courses organized into the folders you assigned them to by clicking on My View. From there, you'll see the courses in your folder structure!
Why aren't the courses in the Personal section?
If you had collaborators on your courses, then those courses now reside in the Team section rather than the Personal section.
You will see these courses in the root directory of your Teams folder because they had a collaborator assigned to them.
Let us know if you're still having trouble locating your content!

These new features are a great step forward! Looking forward for more.
Another goal could be in the near future to have features which are reducing administrating time regarding managing the own/team contents. For example:
- bulk managing courses/folders
- bulk moving items,
- sharing items with multiple users or "user groups" at the same time
- creating different user groups
- nice to have: drag&drop features - MichelleLee-0eeCommunity Member
Hi, the courses under My View were all shared to me as a collaborator/manager. But they do not appear organised as Teams folder. How can I move them to new Teams folder or can this only be done by the owner of the courses?
- CarolynCole-306Community Member
Hi all. I am listed as owner on all of my courses and no longer have the duplicate course option. It is no longer available on the course cover card by clicking on the three ellipses. Please advise where to find it now.
Thank you.
- JenniferSweeneyCommunity Member
Is there currently a way to sort the courses by who authored them? So if I wanted to only see the courses in the Teams view by teammate "Heather Smith"? If not, that would be an appreciated addition to the next roll-out!
- LauraSnyderCommunity Member
Thank you! There they are!

Where did the Duplicate option go? My colleague shared a course with me (made me an editor nee collaborator), and I got the email and can get in and edit. But to duplicate I used to go to the dashboard, Card View, find the course card, hover over the cover page image to find the More kebab, and click Duplicate. That option is gone now.
I found the course in my Team folder. In Card View, I hover over the cover page image to find the More kebab, and my only option is Add to My View. No Duplicate option. If I add it to My View, and access it from there, the only options are Show File Location, Move, and Remove. Please advise.
Hi Pete. The editor role is the same as the previous collaborator role. The duplicate option is available for the manager role or the owner of the course. Could you ask your colleague who shared the course with you to increase your permissions to be a manager?
Let me know if that resolves your issue! Thanks
- PetePiccaroCommunity Member
Thanks, Michael! Your reply resolved my issue. I appreciate it when people reply with actionable solutions. (Permissions level/compare with another course...Now why didn't I think of that?!) ;)
- DenaRodriguezCommunity Member
I'm looking for the Duplicate option, too.
Hi there, Dena. Check out this quick video explaining when you'd see the Duplicate option on your course cards.
Ultimately, you'll need to be a course owner or a course manager to have permission to duplicate content in Rise 360.

Hola! Toda nuestra organización de carpetas se ha deshecho, el equipo de trabajo se ha llevado un susto esta mañana. Quizás debería haberse avisado a los usuarios antes, y también, al menos, dar la opción de hacer un "update" o no hacerlo. Volver a crear toda la estructura de carpetas, ahora mismo, son horas de trabajo, con las que no contábamos.
- articulate3birtCommunity Member
Y por cierto, "My view" no nos devuelve la estructura anterior. Las carpetas de antes no están aquí, o no al menos, no todas las que había antes. Es como si alguien entra en tu oficina y te cambia, de repente, todas tus cosas de lugar. No se puede hacer algo así sin previo aviso, y sin dar opción a hacerlo, por ejemplo, más tarde (como la mayoría de updates).
