Manage synthetic data

Create folders and add files

You can also add folders and files in bulk with the Synthetic-Data sheets of the content workbook.

• Folders marked View only are shared Stride folders. You can attach them but not edit them.

1. Open Data and choose the Synthetic Data tab. Creators open Content & Data.
2. Choose New folder, enter a Title and an optional Description, and create it. The folder code is assigned for you.
3. Select the folder and choose Upload folder to add its files.
4. To add several folders at once, choose Import folders and pick a folder that holds one subfolder for each synthetic-data folder.

Visibility and approval

Items a Creator adds show an Awaiting admin approval badge and stay hidden from learners until a Client Admin approves them.

• A Creator who receives your feedback revises the data and chooses Resubmit.
• Switch on a file's Facilitator only toggle to hide it from every learner. Use it with care.
• Delete removes a file, or a folder with all its files, and cannot be undone. Deleting a folder also removes its links to challenges and quests.
• Creators cannot delete files or change their visibility.

1. Select the folder or file that is waiting.
2. Choose Approve folder, or choose Approve on the file.
3. To send it back, choose Request changes and write your feedback.

Attach a folder to a challenge or quest

• Each challenge or quest has one folder.
• A Creator can attach a folder only to their own draft.
• An approved challenge or quest is already live, so only a Client Admin can change its folder.

1. Save the challenge or quest first.
2. Open it for editing and find the Resources section.
3. Choose an existing folder, or choose New folder to make one.
4. To change the folder, choose Replace. To remove it, choose Detach.

What learners see

On the detail page of a challenge or quest, learners see a Resources card with the attached folder, a Download button for each file, and a Download all (.zip) button. Files marked Facilitator only are not shown. If nothing is attached and approved, the card does not appear.
