What items in Sakai have a stable URL that I can link to?
URL Addressable Items in Sakai
Only a few items in Sakai have URLs with which you can create persistently reliable hyperlinks using the rich-text editor. Only the following items in Sakai are URL addressable:
Of course, using the rich-text editor you can link to any other website outside of Sakai.
Non-URL Addressable Items in Sakai
All other items for which you see links in Sakai do not have stable URLs. A few examples of items that not URL addressable include:
- Assignments in the Assignments tool
- Assessments in the Tests & Quizzes tool
- Discussion board topics in the Discussions tool
- Lessons pages that are not top-level pages on the tool menu of a site
Note that through the magic of the Lessons tool, stable links to the list of items above can be added to a Lessons page. However, such links within a Lessons page are still not URL addressable outside the context of the Sakai Lessons tool. For more details about what you can link to on a Lessons page, see What items can I add to a Lessons page?
