Panopto Video Permissions

Faculty, staff, and students should review their Panopto video permissions to ensure they are set to one of the following based on the intended audience:

  • Restricted
  • Your Organization (unlisted) 
  • Public (unlisted)

Don't Use the following unless the video is intended for broad access, as these settings make it visible to all users in those groups:

  • Your Organization
  • Public

For more information on permissions and how to adjust them, review the Panopto Sharing Options (Panopto).
