Rise 360: Preview Content
You have options when it comes to previewing your Rise 360 training. You can quickly view your content as you develop it and, for external shareholders, you can share a link so that they can preview your content as well.
Preview Content in Rise 360
Preview Rise 360 content at any time to see how it looks. It’s simple, responsive, interactive, and contextual.
|
Simple |
Click Preview in the upper right corner of the editor to switch to preview mode. When you’re done, click Edit to exit preview mode and open the editor in the lesson you're currently previewing. |
|
Responsive |
Click the device icons in the upper right corner to see how your course looks on computers, tablets, and smartphones. It’s fully responsive and adapts to each screen size and orientation beautifully without any extra work. |
|
Interactive |
Click through features, such as labeled graphic markers and accordion interactions, in the same way learners will experience them. |
|
Contextual |
For courses, if you’re on the course outline when you preview, you’ll see the entire course. If you’re editing a lesson when you preview, you’ll only see that lesson. For microlearning, you'll see the entire training. |
Share a Preview Link
Sharing a Rise 360 preview link is easy. It’s there when you want to quickly share your in-progress draft or get input from someone that you’re not collaborating with in Review 360.
- Open the content from your Rise 360 dashboard.
- Click Share in the upper right corner of the screen, click the arrow to expand the Preview section, and copy the shareable link. (If you're the owner, you have the option to protect your course with a password.)
- Send the link to your shareholders. And if you set a password for it, be sure to give them the password too.
Note: Content preview is available only for those users who are in the same regional data center.
FAQs
The following information pertains to Quick Share, the feature replacing Preview.
Is the Share menu going away?
The release of Quick Share and the removal of Preview links has given us the opportunity to make menus more intuitive in Rise 360. The collaborators menu can now be accessed with a single click, and publishing methods will be available in a single menu.
Does Quick Share replace Preview links? How is it different than Preview?
Yes, Quick Share links replace Preview links. Unlike Preview, which was meant as a limited-use tool for sharing draft content with parties outside your organization, Quick Share is a lightweight distribution tool designed to rapidly share content with anyone and gather basic engagement metrics.
What if I already have Preview links for my content?
If you've previously shared your content via a Preview link, those links will still work. However, they won't 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.
I have a trial account — can I use Quick Share?
Quick Share is available to anyone with an Articulate 360 account. However, during your Articulate 360 trial, external links and code blocks are disabled in content shared via Quick Share.
How is Quick Share different from an LMS?
Quick Share doesn't require a third-party platform to distribute content. Anyone can see a shared training without having to log in or create an account. However, advanced LMS features such as certification and centralized reporting aren't available when distributing via Quick Share.
Can I share Quick Share links outside of my organization? Will non-Articulate customers have to sign up for an account?
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.
Is there a way to log who views my Quick Share links?
The Guestbook is enabled by default for Quick Share links. When enabled, learners must enter their email, first name, and last name to access shared training. View learner information by selecting Engagement on the Quick Share screen for your training.

The following FAQs pertain to Preview links and will only be valid prior to Quick Share's launch.
Why did my Preview link content show up in a search engine?
Although share links are public, we prevent search engines from indexing our site. However, if you post these links on a public web page, they may be indexed by a search engine. If the item contains confidential information, set a password or limit access to specific users.
Can the Preview link replace my LMS?
Previewing content via a shareable link is not a hosting solution. Shared deliverables don't track learners’ progress and activity data isn't tracked like it is in Reach 360. When they leave and come back, they have to start all over. The Share link is meant for previewing your in-progress work.
