Introducing the August 2020 release of Captivate Prime

The August 2020 release of Adobe Captivate Prime focuses on enhancing Administrator’s reporting capabilities by offering pre-configured reports that cover important aspects of the platform.
In addition, there are many useful features around content management, APIs and more. Read on to find out more.
Highlights of this release
Reporting enhancements
Administrators can now view ready-made reports to view the overall activity in the account. It helps the Administrator immensely to gauge the health of the account in three major aspects:
- Learning Summary
- User Activity
- Training content
For more information, see Dashboards in Captivate Prime.
Private content folders
All contents of the Content Library in Captivate Prime are always visible to all authors, including custom authors. With this release, Administrator can configure private content folders and provide its access to specific custom-authors using Custom Roles.
For more information, see:
- Administrator- Create a content folder
- Author- Add content to folder
Caption for videos
Captivate Prime now supports captions for video content uploaded in Captivate Prime. Now, authors can upload the file containing captions, along with the video file. Then, the learners can view the captions during the playback of the video module.

Other enhancements
PowerBI integration
Captivate Prime now provides a way to export multiple reports like User data, Learner Transcript, Gamification, Feedback reports and more, as a unified dataset to Power BI.
