Lessonly Overview

Authorizing Lessonly within Ambition allows a manager to add Lessonly lessons to coaching agendas for employees to complete. A manager will be able to select from any public, published lessons and add them to coaching agendas. When selecting a lesson, there is no filtering for lessons assigned to a particular employee(s), but rather the manager will be presented with a list of all public, published lessons that can be added into the coaching agenda.

If a Lessonly lesson is added to a coaching agenda, the employee will be presented with the selected lesson(s) to complete. Lessons that employees interacts with in Ambition will count towards lesson reporting in Lessonly.

Authorize Lessonly in Ambition

4. In a separate tab, navigate to Ambition.

5. Open the left navigation and click Administration > Data > Integrations.

6. Lessonly will be authorized within Ambition's Seismic Integration.

If the Seismic integration has already been enabled in Ambition, click the Settings button on the Seismic integration.

If the Seismic integration has not yet been enabled in Ambition, under Available Integrations, click the Enable Integration button in line with the Seismic integration.

↳ You are able to authorize just the Lessonly portion of the Seismic integration. Seismic does not also have to be connected to Ambition in order to use Lessonly lessons in Ambition coaching agendas. If you do not wish to additionally authorize Seismic, we would recommend deleting the LiveSend Links Sent and number of LiveDocs Generated metrics as they will automatically be generated after enabling the Seismic integration in Ambition.

7. Click on the Authentication tab within the Seismic integration.

8. Reference the Lessonly API & Webhooks tab where you've located the subdomain and API Key.

Copy and paste the subdomain from the Lessonly API & Webhooks tab into the Lessonly subdomain field in Ambition.

Copy and paste the API Key from the Lessonly API & Webhooks tab into the Lessonly API Key field in Ambition.

After Lessonly is authorized, the "Lessonly Lesson" agenda item will be available for managers to add to the agendas of:

• check-ins
• action plans
• cadences
• programs
• managed programs

The "Lessonly Lesson" agenda item can also be added to check-in, program, or action plan templates.

Where in Lessonly can I see if a lesson is public or private?

Only published, public lessons can be used in the "Lessonly Lesson" agenda item.

Verify if a Lessonly Lesson is Public or Private

1. Locate and open the lesson from the content tab.

2. Click on the "Share" button.

The lesson is public if "Anyone with Link" is selected. Only published, public lessons can be used in Ambition.

If the lesson is currently set to "Assigned Only", updating it to "Anyone with Link" will allow the course to be used in Ambition.
