To upload a file to a Student’s profile, you’ll need to have the file accessible on your computer. By “uploading” the file, you’ll be moving a copy of this file to the CollegePlannerPro server and optionally making it available to the respective Student to download. In the video below, you’ll find specific instructions on how to upload a file, create a new file folder, and set whether your Student may view and download a file or folders.
Share document links with a student
It is also possible to add Google Doc links, Dropbox links, and more to individual student Files & Folders.
- Navigate to the student's profile page and click on "Add Files & Folders"
- You'll then see the option to Add a Link:
3. Name the document, select which folder you'd like it to appear in, and paste in the link:
4. The document will then appear within the folder, and clicking on it will allow you to view the file in a new tab.
Here's how to locate the link for a Google Doc file:
1. Click the 'Share' button in the upper right-hand corner when viewing your Google Doc.
2. Review the visibility settings so anyone with the link may view the Google Doc. Select the role you would like them to have: viewer, commenter, or editor.
3. Click on "Copy Link" at the bottom of the pop-up window.
Take it a step further by linking your Google Drive to your CollegePlannerPro account and making uploading files more seamless. Learn more here.
