Share files to allow your colleagues to make edits or re-use the same scenarios or rubrics.

If you know how sharing works on Google Drive or OneDrive, then you already know how to share files on Sapient Clinician!

When viewing a scenario or rubric, click the Share button at the top right to open the sharing window. Here you can add your colleagues and manage who has access to the file.

Share dialog showing "Add names or emails" box, "People with access" list of names, emails, and access levels, "General access" section that's set to "Restricted - Only people with access can open with the link", and a "Copy link" button.

Instead of sharing a bunch of files one by one, it can be convenient to have a shared workspace so that everyone can view and edit the same set of files.

To do this in Sapient Clinician, create a shared folder.

  1. Create a new folder by clicking the New folder button.
  2. Share the folder with your colleagues.

When you create new files within a shared folder, they’ll automatically be visible to everyone else.

From the course page, click on the “People” tab to view all the students and instructors in the course.

Click the Add instructors button to add your colleagues.

The first time you add a co-instructor, we’ll ask if you want to automatically share edit access to all the scenario and rubric files you use in the course. Learn more about this choice.
