Track content by URL

Every content file in the Content library has a unique URL that lets users view the contents of the file. You can send this URL to other people by email from within Adobe Connect Central. Adobe Connect creates a unique version of the URL for each email recipient, so that:

You can request that Adobe Connect send you a return receipt when an email recipient clicks the web link. You can track who viewed the contents because a unique URL was created for each recipient.
Recipients can view the content without having to log in to Adobe Connect. This is true even if the permissions for the content file in the Content library are not set for public viewing.

Select the uploaded content you want to track in the My Content section of the Content Library.
Select E-mail Link.

My Content showing the Email Link option
Type the email addresses for all recipients in the To field on the Email Link page. If necessary, separate multiple email addresses with commas to create a unique URL for each email recipient.

Email link interface
Edit the Subject and Message Body fields accordingly.

Caution

Do not delete the information in the curly brackets (“{tracking‑url}”) in the message body. This placeholder is replaced with the content URL in the email message.
Select Generate a return receipt when content is viewed to receive an email notification when a recipient views the content file; otherwise, deselect the checkbox.
Select Send.

What’s next

Now that you’ve added content to the Content Library, it's time to take that content and create a course out of it. View Create and manage training courses for more information.
