Playlists are a way for you to create lists of activities. They can be public or private so you can build a list of activities for your personal use or you can build a list and share with people.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT PLAYLISTS
You can build and share playlists with anyone, but the person must have permission to complete the underlying activities included in the playlist. The person must be enrolled in the game before they can access the activities. Sharing a playlist does not grant access to the activity.
If the person does not have access, they will see a lock icon next to the activity in the playlist.
Creating a Playlist
Log in to P.L.A.Y. Alludo (opens in new tab).
At the top of the Alludo home page, select Playlists.
Select CREATE PLAYLIST.
Visibility: Select the visibility option.
Private: Private playlists are only available to you.
Unlisted: Unlisted playlists are publicly available but do not appear in the playlist library; you must explicitly share the playlist.
Public: Public playlists can be viewed (and followed) by everyone.
Name and Tags: Enter the playlist name and any tags to categorize your playlist.
Description: Enter a description for the playlist.
Open Badge criteria: If you are including a badge, then enter the open badge criteria for the playlist.
Cover: Upload an image for the playlist, if desired.
Badge: If you are including a badge, upload the badge image for the playlist. If players complete the playlist, they will receive an email with the badge, which will automatically appear in My Portfolio.
Select CREATE.
Adding Activities to a Playlist
To add activities to a playlist, select the “plus” icon when using search or browsing.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The “plus” icon will not appear until you have created your first playlist.
Once you have created a playlist, there are two ways to add activities to a playlist.
Add activities using search
Add activities when browsing a game
Adding Activities to a Playlist Using Search
Select the magnifying glass at the top right of the page.
Type in what you are looking for and select Search. The results will display individual activities you can add to your playlist.
To add the activity to your playlist, select the “plus” icon to the right of the activity name.
Check the box next to your new playlist name, and the activity will be automatically added. You can select multiple playlists, and the activity will be added to all of them.
Adding Activities When Browsing a Game
Select Home from the top menu bar.
In the game you want to browse, select CONTINUE.
You can add individual activities, all the activities from a mission, or all the activities from a level.
Select the “plus” icon to the left of the activity, mission, or level.
Check the box next to your new playlist name, and the activities will be automatically added. You can select multiple playlists, and the activities will be added to those playlists.
Sharing a Playlist
It’s easy to share a playlist with anyone in your organization. Share publicly available playlists by clicking SHARE.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Private playlists cannot be shared.
Select Playlists from the top menu bar.
Select your new playlist.
Select SHARE. The playlist link is copied to the clipboard, and you can paste it into an email to your desired audience.
