Default co-authors
Courses and Quizzes - LMS app creates a page in Confluence Administration, where you can manage default co-authors for future course and quiz administration pages.
- Changing this setting doesn't affect previously created courses and quizzes.
- It does not guarantee that default co-authors will remain there for good. Any user who has access to a course/quiz administration page can update page restrictions - add or remove users and groups.
Use Cases
- make sure managers who are in charge of learning and development have access to all learning content
- prevent problems with accessing a course/quiz when its creator moved to another team or left the company
- make it easier for co-creators to share and collaborate on the learning content
