Introduction

In your platform, you can actively contribute to the learning experience of your company by uploading your content to channels and sharing it with your peers. You can add a screencast so that other learners in the platform can view your demos, tutorials, or other screen recording material in channels. Please note that the term “asset” is used to refer to the content published as a contribution in the platform.

This functionality is supported in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox. It is not supported on Chrome OS. The screen recording app (ScreenPal - opens in a new tab) is offered in English, Portuguese, German, Spanish, French, and Italian. This language is set according to your operating system’s language, not your platform’s language.
