How Do I Send/Receive Shared Documents with Other LiveText Users?

Sending Documents

To send LiveText documents to another user, two methods of sharing are made available within the ePortfolio platform. For users with existing LiveText accounts at Lesley and partner institutions, an internal sharing system has been developed. To send a document, click on the Documents tab and select the document you wish to send. In the top panel of tools available, click "Share this document".

If sending to a Lesley user, leave the radio button set to My Institutions; if sending to a LiveText user outside of Lesley, select All Users. In the Search Viewer box, type in the user's name. An autocomplete mechanism will populate users below with your search credentials.

Click on the name you wish to send your document to and the user's name will be added to your invitation list. Next, click the +Add to Share button on the right and all selected yours will now be able to view your document.

Viewing Shared Documents

To view documents that have been shared with you by another LiveText user, go to the Active Documents section of your Dashboard and click the Inbox tab.

Next, click on the link that reads “View All Documents — Inbox”. On the next page a listing of all shared documents will appear including document filename, author, type of document, and other document details. Click on a document's filename to gain access to its contents within.
