Panopto: Sharing a video folder between courses and instructors

Summary

How to connect Panopto folders between different courses and instructors using Course Hub.

Body

When multiple course sections from multiple instructors need access to the same Panopto folder, first create a "Panopto Resource" for one section using Course Hub. If it already exists, skip to step 1. 

For example, start with Section A and follow the directions here.

Once you have the base Panopto folder created, follow these steps:

  1. Click on the link to the Panopto Folder on Course Hub. This will take you to your Panopto folder.
  2. Click on the Share icon, and add your co-instructor(s) using their Middlebury email address. Give them the role of Creator.
  3. In your web browser's address bar, look at the URL for the folder. It should look something like this:
    https:// midd.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Sessions/List.aspx#folderID=%22XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX%22
  4. At the end of the link, the long string of letters and numbers after the equal sign [=] and in double quotes* is the Panopto Folder ID. Copy this folder ID. NOTE: in some browsers the double quotes denoting the Folder ID may be encoded as %22
  5. Copy the ID.
  6. Share the ID with your co-instructor(s).
  7. They can use this in Course Hub to connect to the base Panopto folder using the steps below.
    • Click "+Resource".
    • Click "Panopto Resource".
    • Paste the Panopto folder ID into the field on the resource form that says "Connect to an existing Panopto folder by ID."
