Hi!

Does my Docebo platform have its own FTP site where I can upload content? 🤔
I know I can use an FTP site from my company for various automations, but I am unsure if Docebo has one for content. I have used several other LMSs where we loaded tons of content via FTP, and it was a big time saver. 

Thanks!
Mark

There is no dedicated FTP space but you can load images to the S3 bucket via some apps (course management > thumbnails) and widgets (HTML/WYSIWYG) for example .


@lrnlab Thank you! How can I find the S3 URL? TIA.

when you use an image that you uploaded to your S3 bucket (for example, in the course you can add an image to the training material). it would look like this:

once it’s loaded and added to the training material, you can click the code icon “ <  > “ to find the url for that image. The url in the code usually has “src” or “cdn” in it.

you can copy that url and use it elsewhere.


@markbrumley This post has the details: 

 


If I can be Captain Obvious for a second. From my understanding of this all, you cannot directly access the S3 bucket by any other means (SFTP or any other protocol) other than by interacting directly with the UI of a course shell and generating an HTML training material. You then inspect and copy the url for the material and you are in good shape with your content.

An interesting finding from a few weeks ago - when developing a course - you get a description field that supports HTML You can inspect and pull the url from the description. Meaning that both work can work well. But there are probably other approaches that I am not calling out here where you can insert an image and then inspect and pull the url as the source for an image in another part of the site.
