Content Area SSO Link

This content web link is designed to take the user directly to a specified area in Foliotek (i.e. Portfolios, Projects, Evaluations). If you wish to add a content link to a deep linked activity in Foliotek see the instructions on the Deep Linking Foliotek Activities page.

To add a content area link, click on the course which requires a link to Foliotek.

If you have an existing Content Area where you would like to add the Foliotek link, click on 'Content' to see your existing Content areas, click on the desired Contet area to reveal the 'Build Content' dropdown.  If you are adding a new Content Area for the link, click on Content and then on 'Build Content' to create the Content area.  The link to Foliotek can be added as its own Content area, it does not have to be inside another Content area.

After selecting or creating a content area, hover over Build Content to open the dropdown menu, find the SSO link you created in the list and click on it.
