What are the different Item types?
Learn about the different Item types you can create in the Platform.
When adding content to the Platform, you'll notice that there are five different Item types:
Action.
A file upload.
Weblink.
E-learning.
Custom page builder.
This article will talk through these different Item types.
1. Action
An Action is typically an offline activity that must be completed by an individual. You'll now be able to track these in Learn Amp too.
Some examples might be:
Attend an industry event.
Have a coffee with your mentor.
Give a company-wide presentation.
Meet our CEO for face-to-face chat.
2. File upload
You can also upload files to the Platform.

You can simply drag a file from your folder to upload, or browse your files.

3. Weblink
Adding links to websites is quick and easy in Learn Amp.
Simply copy and paste the page you would like to link to:
The Item will appears as follows:
Users will be able to click the "Take me there" button and be taken straight to the webpage.
4. E-learning
You can upload SCORM 2004 or 1.2 files.
Your uploaded E-learning course will then play within the Learn Amp Platform and be fully interactive.
5. Custom page builder
A custom page build is free from the restraints of the other Item types, and instead you can insert your own material into this page and 'build' it as you wish.
You can also choose between the Simple vs Advanced editor.
