For more detailed instructions, see Panopto's documentation on sharing folders and sharing videos. Please note that UW recordings in Panopto may not be shared with the public, so not all the sharing options listed by Panopto are available.

Notes: Consider FERPA and copyrights before making a video available to an audience other than your class. If you want to make a video available to the public, add high quality captions and post it on a website.
