Publishing
Deploy your learning content to the web
Publishing
When your learning content is ready, publish it to make it accessible to learners. Impact Learning provides multiple publishing options to fit your needs.
Publishing Options
Public Publishing
Content is accessible to anyone with the link:
- No login required for learners
- Shareable URL for easy distribution
- Best for: Open courses, marketing content, public resources
Restricted Publishing
Content requires authentication or a special link:
- Only authorized users can access
- Share links with optional passwords
- Best for: Internal training, paid courses, sensitive content
How to Publish
Step 1: Open the Publish Dialog
- Click the Publish button in the preview toolbar
Step 2: Configure Settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Title | Display name for the published content |
| Description | Brief summary shown in previews and shares |
Step 3: Publish
Click Publish — your content goes live immediately and you get a shareable link.
Your Published URL
After publishing, you get a permanent URL:
https://app.impactlearning.ai/p/{publishId}/This URL remains stable even if you update the content later.
Sharing Published Content
Direct Link
Copy the URL and share via:
- Messaging apps
- Learning Management Systems
- Intranet pages
Custom Domains
Custom domains are possible but need to be agreed separately. If you'd like to serve your content from your own domain (e.g. training.yourcompany.com), contact us to discuss setup.
Sharing with Colleagues
You can share your project with other Impact Learning users so they can view your work. Click the Share button in the top navigation bar to open the sharing panel.
How Sharing Works
- Search for colleagues by name in the sharing panel
- Add them as collaborators
- They'll see the project in their Shared with me tab on the Projects page
Shared projects are view-only — collaborators can browse the chat history and preview the course, but they cannot make changes. If a colleague wants to build on your work, they can click Remix to create their own editable copy of the project.
You can remove a collaborator at any time from the same sharing panel.
Review Links
Review links let you share your course with external stakeholders — managers, subject matter experts, or clients — who don't have an Impact Learning account. They can view the course preview and leave comments directly, without logging in.
Creating a Review Link
- Click the Share button in the top navigation bar
- Select Create review link
- Set a password for the link
- Copy the link and password, then send them to your reviewers
The password is shown only once when you create the link. Make sure to copy and share it along with the URL.
Reviewer Experience
When a reviewer opens the link, they enter their name and the password. They then see a live preview of the course and a comments panel where they can leave feedback on specific aspects of the content.
Viewing Reviewer Comments
A Reviews button appears in your navigation bar when a review link exists for the project. Click it to see all comments left by reviewers. You can use this feedback to guide your next round of edits with the AI agent.
Managing Review Links
You can revoke or delete a review link at any time from the sharing panel. Revoking a link immediately prevents any further access.
Updating Published Content
Once a course is published, any changes you make are automatically reflected at the published URL — there is no need to republish. Learners always see the latest version.

Troubleshooting
Publish stuck on "Building"?
