This article explains how you can add links to external webpages within a policy. This is useful when you want to give learners access to additional information or related resources. You will need access to the Management Console and the Policy domain where the policy is allocated.
How to add an external link
To begin, go to Policy Management and select Search. Use the available search options to locate and open the policy you want to update.
Once the policy is open, go to the Links tab. Here you can add details for each external webpage you want to include.
Under Name, enter the title of the webpage.
Under URL, enter the full webpage address.
Select Add to save the link.
You can also delete any links that are no longer needed.
Tip: If your link points to an intranet or SharePoint page, make sure that the Audience Groups assigned to the policy also have permission to access those pages. This will prevent learners from encountering errors or access restrictions.
