Uploading Activities

Uploading Files

ClearXP supports many different upload formats – documents, video, podcasts, as well as eLearning packages such as SCORM or xAPI. We’re not big fans of the traditional eLearning package; we prefer a more seamless, integrated experience, but we’ll accept them all the same.

You’re also in luck, we happen to have a learning module picked straight from the vine and ready for consumption. Download the below module so we can show you how to upload it to the platform (the irony in that request isn’t lost on us).

Download Test Module

The module you just downloaded is packaged in a learning format known as xAPI (sometimes also called Tin Can). When uploaded, it will create a new Activity in the system that can be launched and assigned to users.

Watch the video below for a demonstration on how to upload and import your module.

Test Your Module

It’s always a good idea to test your content before sending it out into the wild. After uploading it into the system, you can launch it yourself to see how it will appear for your users. Follow the below steps to find and test your module:

1. Search for the uploaded module from the activities screen

2. Open the module which will bring you to the Activity Details screen – this screen can be used to edit the metadata or content associated with a module.

3. On the right-hand side of the screen, click the Launch button.

The module will launch in a new tab and should load correctly. If everything looks fine, just close the tab and return to the admin interface.
