• Open the link and click on the Share button (top right of screen)
  • Enable Share this recording 
  • Select Only authenticated users can view 
  • Enable Passcode protection if you want to add more protection
  • Click on the Copy Sharing Information for use in communication with students

Create a sub-folder for lecture recordings

Videos recorded using Panopto Capture or Zoom recordings uploaded to Panopto should be stored in a separate sub-folder in the Panopto Recordings folder.

• Click on the Add folder button
• Enter name and hit the enter/return key
• This new folder - Lecture Recordings - is ready for videos of lectures to be added
• Next the settings for the folder should be set

Edit Settings for "Lecture Recordings" Folder

• Open the new folder
• Click on the Gear (Settings) icon in the upper right corner of the browser window
• Select Share on the menu - note that by default the new folder is set to share with all students - if you want to limit sharing, continue and edit the sharing settings
• Click on Change next to People and groups

Now you will be removing permissions for all groups on the Stop Inheriting users and permissions screen

• Uncheck the box that refers to Keep X members as added users
• Click on the green Stop Inheriting button
• Note: The instructor is maintained as a Creator for the folder

With these settings, students will not be able to see the Lecture Recordings folder if they click on Panopto Recordings on the Course Navigation Menu in Canvas. Only the instructor can see the folder.

Uploading/Recording Videos in the Lecture Recordings Folder

Uploading Zoom Videos

• On the Create menu, select Upload Media
• Select one or multiple .mp4 files to upload to the folder
• Once the upload process begins, you can edit the title of the video
• Zoom and Panopto both use dates and times for the default titles of videos, change your video titles to more meaningful titles - hover over the video and click on the Settings button
• On the Overview menu click on Edit next to the name of the video, change the name, click Save

Using Panopto Capture

• Before recording a classroom lecture using Panopto Capture, navigate to this folder
• On the Create menu, select Panopto Capture
• Record the lecture
• Zoom and Panopto both use dates and times for the default titles of videos, change your video titles to more meaningful titles - hover over the video and click on the Settings button
• On the Overview menu click on Edit next to the name of the video, change the name, click Save

Adding Users Sharing Permissions for a Video

• Go to Settings for the video (gear icon)
• Click on the Share option on the menu for video settings
• Begin typing a student's name or DuckID in the text box
• Click on their name when it pops up - it will appear like "Fred's" name appears in the image to the right (you might need to click enter to select the name)
• Add any other students who should have access 
• Put a check in the Notify people checkbox
• Click on Send 

It is a best practice to add yourself to the group with whom you are sharing the video. This will provide you with a copy of the email to confirm it was sent.​​​​​

Student Notifications

With these access permissions the only way a student can play the video is to do so by clicking on the Play button in the email notification.  You must send this notification (Notify People) and be sure to tell students this is how they access the videos. 

Note: if a student is given access to a video, but not the folder the video is housed in, the student must use the link in the email notification to access the video, as they will not see the folder or video in Panopto Recordings.  Some instructors have chosen to give all students access to the lecture recordings folder, allowing students to review the lectures and use them when studying.
