Collaborators help you build and look after content: they can edit it, assign it and see its history. The verifier confirms, on a schedule, that it's still accurate.
Before you start
You can add collaborators to content you're the author or a collaborator of. Admins can add them to any content.
Collaborators and verifiers must have Admin, Manager or Contributor access. People with Read Only access don't appear in the list, and neither does the author.
Add collaborators from your content list
In the sidebar, select Manage › Content and search for the item.
In its Collaborators cell, select Add Collaborator. If you can't see the column, select the columns icon next to the search box and turn on Collaborators.
Search for people, or filter by Job Role, and tick each person you want.
Select Add Collaborators.
You'll see 1 collaborator added to followed by the item's name, and the Collaborators cell shows the new count. People added here don't get a notification.
Note
You can't remove a collaborator here. Use the editor's Collaborators field instead.
Add collaborators and choose a verifier in the editor
Open the content in the editor:
Course: the Collaborators, Verifier and Verification interval fields are on the first step.
Nugget: select Settings at the top of the editor.
Pathway: select the Add Learners and Creators icon at the top of the editor, then the Creators tab.
Search for and add each collaborator.
Warning
People you add as collaborators in the editor get an in-app notification and a You've been made a Collaborator email straight away.
Under Verifier, choose one person. It defaults to the author.
Under Verification interval, choose how often they confirm the content, from 1 Month to 12 Months. For example, choose 6 Months for a returns policy course that changes twice a year.
Save your changes: Save & Continue on a course, or Save in a nugget's Settings. On a pathway, changes save as soon as you make them, so select Close.
Good to know
The verifier gets an Inbox task a week before verification is due. See Verify content that is due for review.
Only the verifier can verify the content; an admin can't do it for them.
Collaborators can't delete the content from Manage › Content. See How authors, collaborators and verifiers work for who can do what.
