Creating Custom Playlists

Create custom playlists to organize content for your Achieve program

Before You Begin

Before creating a custom playlist:

  • Confirm you are logged in with Admin permissions and have access to playlist management.
  • Prepare:
    • A playlist name of 25 characters or fewer
    • A short tagline of 80 characters or fewer
    • A one- or two-sentence description of the playlist
    • High-resolution JPEG or PNG images for the playlist card and social media preview
    • Spanish translations for your custom playlist copy, if applicable

    • Name: Enter a title of 25 characters or fewer.
    • Description: Enter one or two concise, learner-friendly sentences describing the content.
    • Tagline: Enter a short sentence fragment of 80 characters or fewer.
    • Private Playlist: Select this option if you do not want the playlist to appear on the learner landing page or in playlist discovery experiences. Learners with a direct link can still access a private playlist.
    • Translations: If applicable, add Spanish translations for your custom playlist copy:
      1. Select the language under Available Languages.
      2. Enter translated text for the Name, Description, and Tagline.
  4. Add content to your playlist:
    1. Use the dropdown to select one or more pieces of content.
    2. Select + Add Content.
    3. Reorder content using the gripper dots on the left.
    4. Remove content using the trash can icon.
    5. Select Update Selected Content to finalize your selections.

  5. Select your images:
    • Playlist Image: Required. This image appears on the playlist card.
    • Social Media Image: Used as the preview image when the playlist is shared.
  6. Select Save, then confirm your changes to finish creating your playlist.

Next Steps

After saving, your custom playlist appears in the Playlists list.

To include the playlist in a program, add it to the program after you save it. For instructions, see Adding A Playlist.

If you created a private playlist, it remains excluded from the learner landing page and standard playlist discovery experiences. Learners with the direct link can still access it.
