Description
While user groups are created during the course provisioning process, users are not automatically added to their respective groups. A user first has to log in to Panopto, and through a background process, they are added or removed from the necessary user groups. This enrollment sync is completed upon a user's login to Panopto through Blackboard by accessing the recording as a Panopto Video Link.

User permissions can also be forced when the user logs in to Panopto through Blackboard by accessing the "Panopto Course Tool" tool link. This workflow is helpful when permission is necessary for embedded videos within a course. Note, users should only have to do this once per term, so that their Panopto account is added to the Blackboard-associated Panopto groups in your course.
Outcome: You should now be able to add a Panopto video to a Blackboard Original or Ultra course.
