Add content to a Classic Experience

Note: This article is about the new beta Admin App, which is still in development. Changes may occur. Please provide feedback directly in the beta app.

Experiences allow you to organize your content and distribute it to relevant users or user groups in Showpad. Once you’ve created an Experience and set up a folder structure, your next step is to add content from your Content Library to your Experience Builder, where you can edit your Experience.

There are two ways to add content to an Experience:

• Automatically by using Smart Folders
• Manually by searching for and selecting content
