Setting Permissions (available for faculty only)
Who Can See My Presentations?
- If you are a regular user (FIT users who are not registered as faculty users):
- Your presentations are private, but you can share your presentation if you send the hyperlinks created from the menu under Actions (View, PowerPoint, etc.). If the presentation contains records with the restricted access only to FIT members, the person who has the link to your presentation is directed to login to FITDIL first.
- If you are an FIT faculty user (FIT faculty members please contact us to add this feature):
- You can choose to set your presentations to share with other users. You can choose who to share/not to share, and can also set others as collaborators so they can edit the presentation. Your presentation will appear under Experience > Browse Presentation menu for the members you share the presentation with. If you choose to share the presentation with all other authenticated users, your presentation will be available for all FIT users.
For more information about the permission settings, please contact the FITDIL office.
