Account owners and API Users can set up group Talk channels which split your learners into smaller groups.
Group Talk channels allow only learners in that group to access the group channel. This can be useful for group tasks or workshops. Group Talk channels can be set up with random or specified allocation.
Random allocation uses a set number of groups which your learners are automatically and randomly assigned to when they first login.
Specified allocation uses a set number of groups to which you assign specific learners.
To set up group talk channels you’ll need to use iQualify’s API.
Learn more: If you aren’t familiar with the API, check out our API documentation.
There are three API endpoints to handle the creation and management of group channels: Find channels, Add channel and Update channel. You can also use the Find, Add and Remove learner endpoints to manage access to these group channels.
Learn more: We also have a Creating group channels tutorial that you can follow for a step-by-step guide to creating and managing group talk channels in your courses!
Alternatively, you can contact us to help you get your group Talk channels set up. You'll need to send us the following:
