 Portfolios function allows users to export or push their data from the learning management system to third-party services. Let's first check this is configured and enabled. So we're logged in as the administrator on the front page we go to the settings block, side administration, plugins, portfolios, managed portfolios. You can see here the list of available portfolio plugins. Again just ensure they're configured correctly and enabled. We can then go to a course and see them in action. So by way of example if we go to a discussion forum that's been set up already let's add a new topic. We'll give that topic a title and include a message. We then click add to attach a file to our discussion post. Let's choose a file either from our own computer or perhaps the local area network. Upload this file post to forum. So we've posted the forum and attached a file. Now if we revisit post you know with portfolios plugins configured and enabled you can see now we've got options to export either attached file and or the message contained within the post. If there were if there were further discussions within this particular topic we can export the whole discussion as well. So down here we export to portfolio and we've got some options there in terms of export formats. Let's go next and we continue to confirm the export. So there we have it. We've downloaded essentially the forum post and the attached file and student essentially owns and controls their own learning artifacts.
