In Portflow, besides inviting Canvas users, it is possible to invite external users (outside the educational institution) to (a collection of) your portfolio for, for example, feedback.
All feedback from external parties is recognizable by the logo of the organization the external users works for. You can manage and revoke an external user's access yourself. Keep in mind that an external user does not have a dashboard in Canvas like you, but logs into your portfolio directly every time.
Sharing the portfolio with external users
- Go to the home page (for sharing the full portfolio) or collection of the portfolio you want to share
- Click on the plus icon (+) next to 'shared with:'
- Click on 'click here to invite external users
- Enter the invitee's name, email address, and role
- Select the timeframe of the access
- Click on 'send invitation' to send the invitation
The invitee can now log in via 2-factor authentication.
Note: An invitee can change their name, but not the role from which feedback is given. |
