Preparing for Quick Share

Hi! Reaching out ahead of the Quick Share release with a few questions.

  1. Will existing preview links continue to work as-is (as preview links), if they have been shared with others prior to the update? Specifically, will there be any disruption or changes to accessing content shared via preview link?
  2. To confirm, we will be able to create a new Quick Share link for existing courses to view analytics?
  3. What are the limitations, if any, on who can view a Quick Share link? (location, etc.)

Thanks in advance!

    Hi GabbyCregan! I'm happy to answer your questions!

     

    1. Will existing preview links continue to work as-is (as preview links), if they have been shared with others prior to the update? Specifically, will there be any disruption or changes to accessing content shared via preview link?
      1. If you've previously shared your content via a Preview link, those links will still work. They won't begin to gather engagement information as a Quick Share link until you publish an update and distribute that new link. Please note that Preview link views prior to Quick Share link sharing aren't counted. 
    2. To confirm, we will be able to create a new Quick Share link for existing courses to view analytics?
      1. You'll need to publish an update and distribute that new link in order to take advantage of the Quick Share link and analytics. 
    3. What are the limitations, if any, on who can view a Quick Share link? (location, etc.)
      1. Quick Share links can be shared with any learner, not just members of your organization. These links take learners directly to the content without needing to sign in.
