Files in Brillium refer to images, documents, multimedia files, and other common document formats that can be uploaded to Brillium and used within Brillium assessments.

Within the Brillium File Manager, folders can be added, and images, sounds, video, multimedia, and other common document formats can be uploaded to those folders.

The file types currently supported are images in the GIF, JPEG, or PNG format, Adobe Acrobat (PDF files), and Microsoft Office (DOC, XLS, PPT files).

Note

Brillium does not require files to be uploaded, or otherwise hosted within Brillium, to be used within Brillium assessments. Videos from YouTube and Vimeo can also be embedded via link. Brillium also supports Iframe embed for external objects.

Caution

Moving, renaming, or deleting any resources or folders may break existing links within any assessment in which they appear. It is recommended to use copy to ensure current links remain finctional. If you move a file, and still want the resource to appear in current assessments, re-link the resource to the topic, question, or assessment it is used within.

Shared Resources Folder

The Shared Resources folder is a "public" folder. These files are intended to be shared between accounts within an organization, and this feature is especially useful when a Brillium user is designated as the manager of the file resources, so that other Brillium accounts can be restricted from uploading files.
