Enable the Lecture Capture monitoring dashboard

About

This article explains how to enable the Lecture Capture monitoring dashboard.

This article is for Content Hubs and LMS Extensions administrators.

Enable the monitoring dashboard in Content Hubs and LMS Extensions

Content Hubs and LMS Extensions system administrators manage Lecture Capture in the admin area, accessed from <Base_URL>/admin, for example, https://videos.mediaspace.kaltura.com/admin.

1. Log in to Content Hubs or LMS Extensions, and go to the Kaltura Configuration Management window.
2. Scroll down, and select the Classroomcapture module in the Modules > Custom > Core section.
   
   The Classroomcapture administration page opens.
3. In the Enabled field, select Yes to enable the Classroomcapture module.
   
4. Select or enter values for the relevant fields, and click Save.

Allowed users

An allowed user can monitor all Lecture Capture resources in the organization.

Set permissions for allowed users

1. In the Content Hubs or LMS Extensions Management Console, select the Classroomcapture module.
2. Enable the Classroomcapture module.
3. In the allowedUsers section, select the users who can monitor resources.
   
   You can add only users available on your Content Hubs or LMS Extensions instance. Use the autocomplete feature, available from the third letter you type. Permissions match the role mapping for the LMS. Click +Add allowedUsers to add more users.
   

Monitoring admins group

Classroomcapture Admins Group permissions

Users in the Classroomcapture Admins Group (users defined in the Classroomcapture module) have the following permissions:

1. Access to the My Dashboard button.
2. The ability to view all resources in the system.
3. The ability to edit or delete any resource in the system. See the scheduleEventResource API reference for more information.
4. The ability to add resources to the system. See the scheduleEventResource API reference for more information.

Add a user to the Classroomcapture Admins Group

When a user is granted Classroomcapture module permissions, Content Hubs automatically adds them to the Classroomcapture Admins Group. Add users through the Content Hubs admin or the LMS Extensions admin.

Remove a user from the Classroomcapture Admins Group

When you remove a user's Classroomcapture module permissions, Content Hubs automatically removes them from the Classroomcapture Admins Group, and they no longer have permission to view and edit all resources.

Remove a user from the system

If you delete a user (Rich Media CMS or Content Hubs user) from the system, they no longer have access to the Classroomcapture module or the monitoring dashboard. You can remove a user through the Content Hubs or LMS Extensions admin console.

Enable the module in both LMS Extensions and Content Hubs

The Classroomcapture Admins Group is a single group for the Kaltura partner ID. If the Classroomcapture module is enabled in both applications, all users in the group can see the monitoring dashboard through either application.

User management integrations

Active Directory: The Classroomcapture Admins Group isn't related to Active Directory groups. The behavior in this article also applies when Content Hubs relies on AD for user management.

LTI: User entitlements based on LTI also apply to Classroomcapture admins.

Resources

Resources in Lecture Capture are mapped to Lecture Capture installations. Each installation has a unique resource ID, created automatically when you install Lecture Capture. For more information, see Configure a Lecture Capture resource name. You can also edit resources through the Classroomcapture module.

Add, edit, or delete resources

1. In the Content Hubs or LMS Extensions Management Console, select the Classroomcapture module.
2. Enable the Classroomcapture module.
3. In the manageResources field, click Upload a resource definition file (.csv). Use the example to understand the formatting of the .csv file.

View the resources currently defined in the system

1. In the Content Hubs or LMS Extensions Management Console, select the Classroomcapture module.
2. Enable the Classroomcapture module.
3. In the exportResources field, click Download the Resources list.
