Uploading files as a tile while editing a page
On the web,

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:10.680
any video, audio, image or document documents
such as MS Office, PDF,

00:00:10.680 --> 00:00:16.110
etc. are considered external resources and can
be a link or list from your content announcements,

00:00:16.110 --> 00:00:22.000
pages, folders, and events. You can upload the
files before or during editing your content.

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:26.560
To upload the file as a tile while editing, go
to your department office website after you login and

corner of the M osaic editing menu.

audio, images, etc.

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:45.000
In addition, under the advanced menu, you will
see "D ocument viewer" for other types of files.

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:49.080

automatically detect the type of file you are uploading and place

00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:21.970
