How to Copy an Adaptive Release Rule

You may find it easier to copy an existing adaptive release rule rather than creating a new one from scratch. Once the rule is copied, the name can be changed and the rule edited. Rules may only be copied within a single content item; a rule from one content item may not be copied to another content item.
Follow these steps to copy an adaptive release rule:

  1. From the Course Menu, click a content area (content, project support, exams, etc.)
  2. Open the contextual menu for an item and click Adaptive Release: Advanced.

    Click the check box next to the rule you'd like to copy.
     
  4. An exact replica of the rule appears at the bottom of the list. It has the same name as the original rule starting with 'Copy of'.
