Assigning work from Studio

Assignments are created from Studio content pages — not from a separate Assignments screen. Assigning requires the Create assignments permission (assign:create); managers and admins have it by default.

Assign content

1. Open Studio → the course, program, document, form, or proof gate.
2. Publish it first — only published content can be assigned. The Assign button appears once the item is published.
3. Choose Assign. The picker is titled Assign: {title} — *"Filter by role and location, then assign to the matching people."*
4. Narrow the audience with the Role filter (All roles), the Location filter (All locations), or the Search box (*Filter by name or email*). The list previews up to 40 matching people.
5. Choose Assign to {n} — every matched person gets the assignment immediately with status pending.

If nobody matches your filters you will see No people match these filters.

Where learners see it

Content type	Learner surface
Course / program	Learn (and Home's next action)
Document	Documents
Form / proof gate	Tasks

Learners are not emailed per assignment; overdue work surfaces through the alerts digest. Newly assigned work appears on Home as the next action.

Good to know

• Assigning the same item again to the same person does not duplicate their task.
• Due dates are supported by the platform but are not currently set from the Studio assign picker — assignments go out without a due date.
• Assignments never cross workspaces; assign in the organization where the learner works.
• Unlisting or unpublishing content later does not remove work already assigned.
