Learning Pathways web part permissions
I am building an internal site for my company and have added the Learning Pathways web part. In order for users to view the content in the web part, I added them as a Site Visitor to the Microsoft 36...
Not sure if this has been resolved, but you can add the LP web part as an app to other SharePoint sites that you DO want staff visiting. So you're NOT limited to the Learning Pathways out-of-the-box site.
Test this well because I didn't do much beyond adding the web part to a random team site.

- Thank you for responding. I originally added the Learning Pathways web part to our own SharePoint site that we want employees to visit; however, employees couldn't see the content associated with the Learning Pathways web part until I assigned them "Site visitors" permissions in the actual Learning Pathways site. It seems the web part and the Learning Pathways site are connected in regards to permissions.
- Ah ha. I just tested on my end and ran into the same issue as you.
I suppose if the LP site is needed to work, then you can lock down navigation so people can't go beyond the landing page. Leave a link to re-direct them to where they should be.- I'm glad you were able to recreate this and see the dilemma that some of us are having. That is a good idea you provided and I will look at doing that. In the meanwhile, I do wish someone from Microsoft would respond to this thread.
