Create a Live Event Link

You can create a live event link for your Percipio learners so they can access all their learning from one location and track their progress even if you manage your live events in other systems. Live event links can have any URL you want.

Note: If you manage instructor-led training in Percipio via Live Courses, you will want to use that instead of live event links. Live event links do not require an admin or instructor to mark learners as complete, but rather the learner triggers completion of a live event link when they select the button to launch the live event link. If you require control over how many users can join a live event link, you will want to use Live Courses instead.

To create a live event link:

  1. From the left navigation bar, choose Content > Content Items. The Manage Content Items page displays.
  2. Select Add Custom Content Item.
  3. Select Live event link(s). The Add Custom Content page displays.
  4. Enter the Live event URL. You can add a URL so learners can attend the event directly from Percipio or add a URL to a registration page if you manage your events in another system.
    • This field is required.
    • The URL must include https://
    • At this time, if you add a YouTube URL in this field, the page won't load for your learners.
  5. Specify the Timezone of the event. This field is required.
  6. Enter Start date and time and an End date and time. This helps the user schedule the event into their calendar. These fields are required.
  7. Select one of the following actions:
    • Cancel: Discard all changes.
    • Save as Draft: Save your changes for modification or publication later.
    • Next: Review content details: Progress to the final stage to review your settings and publish.

  8. Review the details of your live event link. Select to edit any details if necessary, then choose one of the following actions:
