Allowing Anonymous Access to Public Content

Allowing Anonymous Access to Public Content

Veracity Launch LMS can let users open a piece of content without logging-in. This public content appears in its own area of your portal, for users who have not logged-in. Just click the Public Content button in the upper-right, next to the Sign In button.

When opening public content, Launch creates a temporary session for each anonymous user. The user can resume partially-completed content if a session exists. Explicitly completing the content also permanently closes the anonymous session.

Make Content Public

As an administrator, to make content publicly available:
  1. Sign In to your portal.

  2. In the left menu, select the ADMIN > Manage Content option.

  3. In the card for the piece of content that you want to make public, click the Actions button (three vertical dots) in the lower-left of the card.

  4. In the Actions pop-up menu, select the Edit option.

  5. In the Edit Activity form, in the About section, check the Public checkbox.



  6. Public content must allow self-enrollment. Make sure to also check the Allow Self Enrollment checkbox.

  7. Click the Save button.

Share a Link to Public Content

If you want to share a link to a piece of public content, then:
  1. In the left menu, select the ADMIN > Manage Content option.

  2. In the card for the piece of content that you want to make public, click the Actions button (three vertical dots) in the lower-left of the card.

  3. In the Actions pop-up menu, select the Get Anonymous Link option.

  4. In the pop-up box, right-click the link, and select the Copy Link option from the browser’s context menu.


This URL is the same as the address that anonymous users go to when they click the Launch button on the same piece of content in the Public Content area of your portal.
