Admin > Content management gives system administrators an environment-wide view of every collection, assessment, schedule, and piece of candidate feedback. Use this article when you need to find content owned by another user, share content on their behalf, or archive content as an administrator.
In normal use, content in Cirrus is locked to its owner. Content management is the only place a system administrator can see and act on content across the whole tenant.
Collections tab
Lists every collection in the environment, with Title, Number of questions, Author, the author's Username, Available to (Personal or Shared), and Status (Active or Archived).
From this tab an administrator can:
- Archive or unarchive a collection.
- Share a collection on behalf of its owner.
Assessments tab
Lists every assessment, with Title, Assessment code, Author, Username, Qualifications, Status (Draft or Live), and whether the assessment is Published.
From this tab an administrator can:
- Archive or unarchive an assessment.
- Share an assessment on behalf of its owner.
Schedules tab
Lists every schedule. Columns include Title, Code, Start, End, the associated Hierarchies (which control who can mark and see results), the Type (Summative, Formative, or Mixed), and the Status (Activated or Draft).
The advanced search box supports searching by schedule title, assessment title, hierarchy, or last-sat date. It also searches by username or userID, which returns every schedule that user is a candidate on. Hover any row to see the marking workflow, candidate feedback setting, show-candidate-results setting, score report usage, and assessment-level feedback setting.
Feedback tab
Lists every piece of feedback candidates submitted on questions during exams. See Feedback administration for processing flagged questions.
How to share
Collection and assessment owners can share their own content. From Content management, a system administrator can share on someone else's behalf.
Share a collection
- Open Admin > Content management.
- On the Collections tab, tick one or more collections.
- Select Share, type the usernames you want to share with, choose the access level, and save.
Share an assessment
The flow is the same on the Assessments tab. Access levels follow Assessment roles.
