Course source material: viewing and changing it after creation

Whether you can see, add or change the source documents behind an existing course, and the practical alternatives.

What content is grounding this course? The source material behind a course (the content grounding this course) is not shown anywhere once it exists, and cannot be modified. After a course is created, there is no screen that shows or edits the source material it was generated from. The course editor (Overview, Lessons, Design, Interactive, Deliver, Share) has no sources panel, and you cannot add, remove or swap reference documents on an existing course. Sources are only chosen in the Course form at creation (see the guide on generating a course with AI).

What you can do instead:

• Edit the lessons directly in the Lessons tab; changes are kept in version history.
• Ask the assistant to edit a lesson.
• To base a course on different material, generate a new course with the right sources.
• On Knowledge, open a source's Used by view to see content created from it. Courses may appear there, but it is not shown for every course, and courses cannot be regenerated from it (only question sets, polls and character knowledge can).
