Share a lecture note

When you want to share a document straight into a group — your lecture notes, a summary, or a cheatsheet — the Share a lecture note flow lets you upload it and tag it to a course so classmates can find it later. For a faster, share-from-anywhere capture, use Quick Capture instead.

Before you start

You share a lecture note into a group, so you need to be a member of at least one — see Create a group or Explore and join your school's groups.

🖥 Web
📱 Mobile

Open the group and channel you want to share into. In the message bar, click the Share a resource with the channel button (the sticky-note icon).
The Share a lecture note dialog opens. Keep the File tab selected and upload your document — or switch to Link or Note to share a URL or a quick text note instead.
Give your resource a Title.

Set an Associated course and an Associated date so the note surfaces alongside the rest of that course's resources.

{
  "id": "web.notes-and-resources.share-a-note.details",
  "platform": "web",
  "route": "/chats/groups/{groupId}/{channelId}",
  "actions": [
    {
      "clickText": {
        "value": "Share a resource with the channel"
      }
    }
  ],
  "clip": {
    "testId": "share-note-dialog",
    "pad": 16
  }
}

Click Share. Your note is shared with the channel and appears in the group's shared resources.

Open a group channel, open the message actions, and tap Share resource. (You can also start from the Resources tab — tap the action button, choose Share a resource, and pick a channel.)
Tap Pick a document and choose the file to share.

Give your resource a Title and, optionally, a Description.

    {
      "tapOn": {
        "text": "Pick a document"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Tap Share to share the note with the channel's group.

tip

The Associated course tag is what makes a note easy to find — a note tagged to a course shows up when classmates filter by that course and in its cross-cohort view.
