The Udemy for Business connector surfaces courses from Udemy for Business in Fuse search results. When you click on a Udemy for Business course, a new tab opens in the browser and you are taken to the course in Udemy for Business. All Udemy for Business courses feature a logo to help differentiate them from natively produced Fuse content, such as articles, links and questions, or content that has been uploaded to Fuse.

...

Please take note of the following before using this connector: 

...

  • Udemy for Business courses surfaced through this connector are only

...

  • accessible in Fuse search results.

...

  • This means they cannot be opened

...

...

  • . However, you can manually add URLs of Udemy for Business courses to Fuse external links, which can then be added to learning plans and topics. For more information see Can I add Udemy for Business courses to topics or learning plans using a link?.

  • The courses automatically synchronise with Udemy every 12 hours.

  • Users must have a valid Udemy for Business licence to view the courses in Udemy.

  • Social information such as views, comments, likes and shares only apply to Fuse content, and so, are not available for Udemy for Business courses.

Prerequisites steps

To set up the Udemy for Business connector, you must do the following:

1. Set up a Udemy for Business community

In order to control which users see Udemy for Business courses in Fuse search results, you must set up a community and add users (with Udemy for Business licenses) to it. Only members of this community will see Udemy for Business courses in Fuse search results.

...

Users outside of the community will be unable to see the courses. This community can contain Fuse content or it can be completely empty, and it can be

...

open,

...

protected,

...

private or

...

public. The community simply determines which users see Udemy for Business courses in search results and which users do not.

Info

The Udemy for Business courses do not exist within the community itself.

Note

If you do not want to create a new community specifically for this purpose, you can use one that already exists in Fuse.

2. Raise a ticket with Fuse Support

You must raise a Udemy

see Udemy for Business courses in Fuse search results. Search results from Fuse and Udemy are aggregated and sorted in order of relevance to your search query. Udemy courses are clearly labelled, so you can easily differentiate them from ordinary Fuse content.

or courses from Udemy for Business.

...

apply facets to narrow down the search results. You can select the Udemy for Business option under the Source facet, so that only Udemy courses are returned, as well as filter by Type, Subject, and Topic.

Facet

Description

Type

If the Udemy for Business connector is enabled, the Type filter applies to:

  • Udemy for Business courses

  • SCORM courses uploaded to Fuse

Subject

Allows you to filter Udemy for Business courses by subject. This is high-level classification. Subjects in Udemy for Business typically contain several topics. For example, a subject in Udemy for Business might be ‘Leadership & Management’.

Image Added
Note

The Subject facet only applies to 3rd party content surfaced using connectors. You cannot filter natively produced Fuse content (articles, links, questions and uploaded files) by subject. Selecting a value from the Subject facet automatically removes natively produced Fuse content from the results. 

Example: There are 8 content items returned in the search results, 4 of which are 3rd party in origin, and 4 of which are natively produced in Fuse. If you apply the Subject facet, the 4 items of Fuse content will be removed from the search results automatically.

Topic

Allows you to filter Udemy for Business courses by topic. For example, the ‘Leadership & Management’ subject might include a topic called ‘Strategy’.

Note

The

...

Topic facet only applies to 3rd party content surfaced using connectors. You cannot filter natively produced Fuse content (articles, links, questions and uploaded files) by topic. Selecting a value from the Topic facet automatically removes natively produced Fuse content from the results. 

Example: There are 8 content items returned in the search results, 4 of which are 3rd party in origin, and 4 of which are natively produced in Fuse. If you apply the Topic facet, the 4 items of Fuse content will be removed from the search results automatically.

Language

Allows you to filter the search results to only show content in a particular language. For example, if you select 'Italian', the search results only show content items that are in Italian.

Note

The Language facet only applies to 3rd party content surfaced using connectors. You cannot filter natively produced Fuse content (articles, links, questions and uploaded files) by language. Selecting a value from the Language facet, such as 'Italian', automatically removes natively produced Fuse content from the results. 

Example: There are 8 content items returned in the search results, 4 of which are 3rd party in origin, and 4 of which are natively produced in Fuse. If you apply the Language facet, the 4 items of Fuse content will be removed from the search results automatically
