Learn how to use the Rooms user interface

00:09

Built with real time collaboration in mind,

00:12

Rooms allow a group of users to conduct live synchronous assessment

00:16

sessions of one or more assets, with live video and audio chat,

00:22

all without having to leave the security of the platform.

00:26

In this tutorial,

00:27

we'll give you an overview of the Rooms page so that you know your way

00:31

around, and dive into the functionality of Rooms in more detail in future tutorials.

00:37

Once you click the rooms icon on the left, you'll see two tabs: rooms and playlists.

00:44

The rooms tab lists the rooms that you're a

00:47

participant on or host on in the middle column.

00:51

Clicking on playlists allows you to see all of the playlists that you've created,

00:55

which will be the function by which you bring assets into rooms

00:58

when written.

00:60

Back on the rooms tab, you can create a new room,

01:03

close or delete rooms, and enter rooms all with a few clicks.

01:09

You can also sort your rooms by name or date,

01:13

rename your rooms,

01:17

or filter your rooms by status.

01:21

Note that the default view is open and draft, so

01:24

that your most relevant rooms are shown by default.

01:27

The right hand side of the rooms tab includes

01:30

a wide array of functionality and relevant information.

01:33

You can see details about the room you've selected,

01:36

manage the assets included in a room,

01:39

manage the participants of the room,

01:42

as well as adjusting your room settings, such as which

01:45

devices you'd like to use for audio and video.

01:49

Now that you know your way around the Rooms page,

01:51

let's take a look inside of a Room itself,

01:54

so you're familiar with that layout as well.
