🔍 What is it?

The Assignment, Catalog, and Public Link distribution modes allow you to clearly indicate how your Didask publications are accessible to your learners:

  • Assignment highlights the training courses that your learners must complete.

  • Catalog leaves the publication available for self-service in the catalog.

  • Public Link shares the training course via an open URL (without authentication).

This change replaces the old “Private/Public” duo to offer a more intuitive reading for both facilitators and learners.


🎯 Who is it for?

  • Coaches/Managers/Administrators who distribute training courses to specific groups.

  • Learning managers who want to differentiate between mandatory training and advisory resources.

  • Learners who need to immediately identify their priority actions.

💼 Use cases covered

  1. Launch an onboarding program where each new hire must complete the assigned modules.

  2. Maintain a catalog of optional resources without disrupting the prioritization hierarchy.

  3. Share a training course open to external partners via a public link.


🛠️ How does it work?

🔹 For Coaches/Managers in the Studio

Step 1: Open Studio > Publications and select the desired publication.

Step 2: Click on the Assignment, Catalog, or Public Link tab.

Step 3: For Assignment, use the search field to select the relevant groups, then confirm.

Step 4: Start distributing your training course.





🔹 For learners

Publications distributed in Assignment automatically appear in the “Assigned training courses” section of the user's Home page.

Publications distributed in the Catalog appear on the “Catalog” page.


💡 Good to know

  • Existing publications have been migrated automatically (Private → Catalog or Public Link depending on the current options).

  • Public links can combine authenticated and non-authenticated users, but keep this option for truly open cases.

👀 What does it look like?

  • Studio: a mode selector in the Assignment / Catalog / Public Link tab, with a filterable list of groups for Assignment and Catalog.

  • Learner space: a new “Assigned” section at the top of the page, enhanced with a badge and progress level.
