Public Activities: Admin Overview
Outline
The Intellum Platform's Public Activities feature gives you the option to make content in your account accessible to users who are not logged in. If enabled, unauthenticated users can access an activity page, but are prompted to log inĀ to track their learning or complete the activity.
This article gives you an overview of public activities, shows you how to make an activity viewable to unauthorized users, and breaks down the user experience with public activities.
Things to Note:
- You'll need to contact a Customer Success Manager or an Intellum representative to enable Public Activities on your account.
Allow public view
Once the Public Activities feature is enabled for your account, you will find a new property included in your activity Catalog Properties - seen below:
Heads Up!
Enabling public activities is useful in a variety of ways, one being that it will allow learners to publicly display badges awarded by your organization to LinkedIn, for example.
Public Pages with video and audio components do not require users to be authenticated to play the videos and audio tracks. However, downloading a file will require a login.
Assessment, Video, and Audio activities require a login to access even if made public.
For additional use cases, contact your Customer Success Manager or an Intellum representative.
Public activities: Paths & Collections
Paths
When you enable Public View for a Path, the activities within the path are made viewable to unauthorized users within the context of the path - and feature log in prompts as listed above.
Heads Up!
For Sequenced paths: users will be prompted to log in when they attempt an action on the activity page - as outlined in the section above.
For Launch Direct paths: users will be prompted to log in when they attempt to launch an activity from the path's home page that requires log in - like E-learning courses (not including Evolve inline courses), assessments, or file downloads.
Collections
If you enable Public View for a Collection, you must also enable Public View for each Path within the collection to ensure the content of each path is accessible to users.
