How to Invite Collaborators to a Course or Module

Learn how collaborator access lets other Admins and Managers edit, comment on, or view your Modules and Courses, so you can build training together.

Written by Ben Brunken
The Collaborators settings dialog

Invite other Admins and Managers to help build a Module or Course, and choose exactly what each person can do.

Inviting Collaborators to Modules or Courses

Invite Admins and Managers individually, or give access to all Admins or all Managers at once. For each person, choose Edit or Comment. Modules also offer View only.

Keep in mind that by default:

  • All Admins is set to Edit on anything you build.

  • All Managers is set to No access, so Managers can't open it until you invite them.

How to Invite Collaborators

  1. Open the Module or Course. In the top right corner, click the Collaborators button (the two-person icon).

  2. Click Invite admins or managers and search for the Admins or Managers you want to invite. You can select more than one.

    • If you're a Manager, the field reads Invite managers at your location, and you can only invite Managers at your Location(s).

  3. Click the dropdown and select Edit or Comment (View only is also available for Modules).

    • Edit lets them change anything in the Module or Course and publish it.

    • Comment lets them leave comments but not change anything.

  4. Click Invite.

💡 The button is an icon: There's no "Share" label. Hover over the two-person icon in the top right corner to see the Collaborators tooltip.

General Collaborators

If you're an Admin, set access for All Admins or All Managers at once under General collaborators. This step is optional. All Managers also offers No access.

⚠️ Edit access for all Admins or all Managers needs a permission: Admins and Managers can only edit content shared with All Admins or All Managers if their Role has the Create Content permission.

Opus Docs and Resources

Opus Docs and Resources have the same Collaborators button (the two-person icon) in the top right corner. You can choose Edit or View only. There's no Comment option.
