The Copy Settings page allows the Administrator to enable options that automatically update permissions to Content Collection items linked to in a course after a course copy operation.
Links to Content Collection items in a course are copied during a course copy operation. Because links to Content Collection items are copied and not physical files, all users must have permission within the Content Collection to view these files. If this tool is not enabled, users in the new course will not have the appropriate permission.

|
Note: The permissions for links to Content Collection items within Assessments (Tests, Surveys, and Questions Pools) are not automatically updated. The Instructor must update the permissions to these items manually through the Content Collection. |
Follow these steps to open the Copy Settings page.
