Group links

Every group has a Links section — a shared shelf for the web pages your group keeps coming back to, like a syllabus, a shared drive, or a sign-up sheet.

  1. Open the group from your Chat list and find the Links section.

  2. Click Add a new link.

  3. Enter the URL and a Name for the link. Optionally tie it to a course with Associated course.

            "testId": "group-url-input",
            "value": "https://moodle.example.edu/ma-101"
          }
        },
        {
          "fill": {
            "testId": "group-url-label-input",
            "value": "Course Moodle"
          }
        }
      ],
      "clip": {
        "testId": "create-group-url-dialog",
        "pad": 16
      }
    }
  4. Click Add. The link appears in the group's Links section for everyone.

  5. Drag links to reorder them, or delete one and confirm in the Delete the link? prompt.

Good to know

Links tied to an Associated course only show for members who follow that course, so a busy group's link list stays relevant to each person.
