Upload external files to the Class File Manager

Upload external files to the Class File Manager

You can upload files from outside of Möbius (Example — images, videos, and reference files) that you can then use within your content.

This uploaded external content is stored in a website folder called the Class File Manager.

You can then add external files from the Class File Manager to supplement the content that you've built within Möbius.

External files ca be uploaded to the Class File Manager from:

  • The Content Repository

  • One of the content editors (Example — Assignment Editor)

Although the Class File Manager appears differently when uploading to it from the Content Repository compared to from within one of the content editors , it has the same core function of storing your external files.

Upload from the Content Repository

To upload external files to the Class File Manager from the Content Repository:

  1. Click Content Repository from the Class Homepage.

  2. Click View Files to enter the Class File Manager.

  3. Navigate to the folder that you want to upload your external file to.

  4. Click the Upload file(s) to this point icon.

  5. Click Choose File to locate and select the external file to upload.

  6. Select if you are uploading a Single file with file name or a Zip archive.

  7. Click OK to perform the upload and return to the list of files in your Class File Manager.

  8. Repeat steps 3 to 7 to upload additional files.

  9. The uploaded external file is now available for when you're ready to add the file to your Möbius content.

Upload from a content editor

You might be working on some content (Example — authoring a question) and decide that you want to add an external file to your content that hasn't yet been uploaded to your Class File Manager.

You can then upload a file right into your Class File Manager from where you're working on your content, and then immediately add it to your content.

To upload external files to the Class File Manager while working in a content editor:

  1. Click to add the external file to your content from the content editor in use.

  2.  Click Upload from the Class File Manager.

  3. Navigate to the external file that you want to upload from your computer. Select the file(s) of interest and click Open.

  4. Wait while the external file uploads to your Class File Manager.

  5. Double click the uploaded external file from your Class File Manager to add it to your content.

  6. You can now work with the added external file within your content.
