Can I add LinkedIn Learning content to topics and learning plans using a link?
- James Goodwin
IMPORTANT: Soon we will be releasing our smart connectors, which will replace our legacy connectors in this section. Our smart connectors will allow you to quickly and easily integrate with a multitude of platforms and external content sources such as learning content libraries and learning management systems (LMS). Due to this, we are no longer accepting requests for our legacy LinkedIn Learning and Udemy for Business connectors.
Items of LinkedIn Learning content, surfaced using the LinkedIn Learning search connector, only exist in Fuse’s search index. This means they do not actually exist in Fuse alongside items of Fuse content. As a result, LinkedIn Learning content cannot be added to topics or learning plans. However, as a workaround, you can add LinkedIn Learning content URLs to Fuse external links, and then add these external links to topics and learning plans. This allows users to navigate to an item of content that is in LinkedIn Learning via a learning plan or topic.
Ordinarily, Fuse automatically extracts a title, thumbnail and description from URLs. This is currently not possible for LinkedIn Learning URLs. This information must be entered manually before posting to Fuse.
If you choose to do this, the item of LinkedIn Learning content will appear twice in search results:
As an item of LinkedIn Learning content surfaced via the connector
As a Fuse external link
We do not recommend doing this on a large scale, as this may prove confusing for users.
