Link Sharing and Completion Tracking
December 06, 2024
Version 24.12.06_1
Feature Outline
MicroBuilder now allows modules to be shared as standalone links, enabling content distribution beyond LMS-based users. Published modules can be shared in two formats:
- Public Link
- Functions like a regular website link.
- Anyone with the link can access the module.
- Private Link
- Protected by a custom password.
- Requires the password to access the module.
- Multiple distributions can be created by the author and shared with different user groups.
Note:
Even when content is distributed, robust content security measures are applied in the background to ensure protection.
Feature Details

Managing the Public/Private Link Feature
When the Share icon is clicked, a popup will appear containing two tabs:
-
Public tab
- This is the default tab displayed upon launching the popup.
- The public link is disabled by default and can be enabled using a toggle button.
- A confirmation alert will prompt the author before enabling the public link.
- Once enabled, a pre-generated unique link will be accessible.
- The link can be shared with the intended audience using external communication tools.
-
Private tab
- This is available as the secondary tab.
- Authors can create multiple private links, each secured with a password.
- By default, this tab is empty. Clicking the "New Private Link" button opens a popup to set a name and password for the private link.
- This is available as the secondary tab.
- Once saved, the created links will be listed in this tab. Both the link and password can be copied easily for sharing. The newly created link will be listed on top.
- Options are available to modify or delete the created links as needed.
