Creating Content Overview

Creating Content

Atheer Studio has a built-in content management system that can be used to present content directly to the front line workers using the Atheer Lens app. With content formats such as videos, articles, podcasts, etc., and a topic hierarchy in which to organize them, the content can be a powerful tool to support the front line workers.

From a browser on your computer, open your Atheer Studio workspace, and sign into your account using your assigned credentials. Upon successful login, you will be presented with the Conversations home page.
From the Atheer Studio toolbar on the left side of the page, click on the (Content) button, and the Content page will be presented. To create new content, click the NEW button on the top right corner of the page.
There are 8 formats of content that you can create (Videos, Podcasts, Documents, Images, Articles, Posted Web Pages, Announcements, and Did You Knows). You can scroll down the menu listing to reveal the entire list.

Content Tools and Widgets

As you go through the process of creating content, you will discover that there is a common set of tools and widgets available. Once you learn how to use these tools and widgets, you will be able to create content using any of the 8 formats.

Here is a description of the different tools and widgets available:

SELECT FILE TO UPLOAD

The file upload utility gives you the ability to upload files into Atheer Studio and present them as content. You have the option of browsing for files on your computer (the SELECT ... FILE TO UPLOAD button), or you can sign into your Google Drive, box, or OneDrive cloud accounts and upload files from them.

TITLE & DESCRIPTION

Title:

The title is the name of the content that the Atheer Lens users will see. It is typically automatically populated by the name of the file you upload or connect to from the Web.
This file name can, and probably should, be edited to match your content naming convention so that the users of Atheer Lens can easily identify what the content is about.

Description:

The primary use of the description is for the Authors and Administrators using Atheer Studio to recognize what the content is referencing without having to read through it or watch the video.
The description is not available to users on the Atheer Lens app.

USE EXISTING URL

The Use Existing URL button allows you to link to an existing video that is hosted by a video streaming service. Simply paste the URL from the streaming services’ web page that is hosting the video onto the URL line in the Use Existing URL From pop-up.

The Or Use Embed Code button in the Upload Video function allows you to paste the embedded code of a streaming video (provided by the streaming site) to embed the video into your Atheer Content.
