Overview

In order to use /wiki/spaces/54/pages/590217403 to record and publish presentations for students, Academic Staff members must have a /wiki/spaces/54/pages/590217291. 

The Users page of the EchoSystem Server (ESS) provides two methods for licensing presenters for Personal Capture:

  • /wiki/spaces/54/pages/590217284 and assign or revoke the Personal Capture license.
  • Select multiple presenters on the Active Staff tab in the ESS and choose to assign or revoke Personal Capture licenses for all selections. 

The instructions on this page cover assigning or revoking Personal Capture licenses for multiple presenters at once through the Users page.
