Administrate and Share Folders and Files in Panopto

General Folder Management

You can create folders yourself, either in a course folder, or within My Folder.

You administrate your own My Folder and other folders you have created yourself.

Panopto has a guide on general folder management.

Personal Folders / My Folder

Personal folders are located under My Folder and are only available to employees at UiO. These folders may be used to upload videos that aren't connected to a course or similar. By default, no one else has access to your personal folders. It is however possible to share videos from them.

See Panopto's guide about My Folder here.

Share Folders and Files

Depending on where a video is placed, you can share videos or entire folders within Panopto.

If you use Canvas, your students will automatically be granted access to the course folder within Panopto.

Move and Copy Files and Folders

If a video is placed incorrectly, or you want to move it, it is possible to do so in Panopto. It is also possible to copy files and folders to have them at multiple places in Panopto.

You can learn more at Panopto's guides on moving and copying a single file,
or to move or copy a batch of files.

If you want to copy a video it is recommended to use reference copy instead of a normal copy. This is because a reference copy will point to the main video instead of creating a seperate copy. The advantage of this is that administrating the video in the future will become easier as the video will only be in one place.

You can learn more at Panopto's guide on reference copies.

You can also move folders.

Publishing and Setting Availability on Videos

If you do not want a video to be published immediately after uploading it is possible to change this for the video or the folder you are uploading to. You may want to not publish before you have gone through the recording, added captions, or wait for a specific date before publishing.

You can learn more from Panopto's  guide on publishing videos.
