  • Find the section the content or item is inside of you want to restrict. (The item could be a folder, test, reading material, etc.)

  • Click the arrowed button that appears

  • Select “Adaptive Release” from the menu

  • Change the Field Name to either First or Last Name.

  • Search for the user by either first or last name.

  • Select the check box next to the user.

• • Click Submit.

  • The username should now be placed inside of the Username box.

• • Click Submit when you are done.

  • Now only that one user has access to this item or content. You can continue to add more users into this box to create access to a specific group.
