How do I add the Panopto block to a Moodle course?

In order for your Moodle course to show the Panopto content that has been recorded, you will need to enable the Panopto CourseCast Block on your course page. The following steps will outline how to do this.
Step 1: Adding the Panopto CourseCast block
- Go to the Moodle course that you wish to add the block to and click on the Turn Editing On button.
- From the Blocks block, click on the Add… drop down menu, and select Panopto CourseCast from the list.
Now that the Panopto CourseCast Block has been added, you can Turn Editing Off. The next step is to configure the Panopto CourseCast block.
Step 2: Provisioning your Moodle course

If the Moodle course that you are in has already been provisioned to Panopto, the block will show up with the course already configured to show your recordings.
If the Moodle course has not been provisioned yet, you willl need to select the related Panopto course or provision your Moodle course to Panopto at that time. To do so, click on Configure Block…
The Configuing a Panopto CourseCast block page will appear.

You can use the drop-down next to Course: to choose the Panopto Folder that you wish to associate with your Moodle Course. If your course does not appear in the drop down, please contact the Audio Visual team to have it created.
Step 3: Synchronising the User List
Once you have chosen your course, you will need to give access to the Panopto recordings to the Parcipicants (Teachers and Students) within your Moodle course.
In order to update the users list to control who has access to this content, click on the Configure Block… link again and then Sync User List.
Please note that each time the Participant list in your Moodle course changes, you will need to repeat this process.
Now that the Panopto CourseCast Block has been added, you can turn Editing Off and then Configure the Block.
If
the course that you are in has already been provisioned to Panopto, the
Block will show up with the course already configured to show your
recordings.
