In
the final dialog box, locate
your Breeze presentation with the .zip extension on your hard drive with the Browse…

Note: Depending on the file size of your presentation and your connection speed, it may take some time for the upload process to complete.
f) After the upload process completes, click the Close Window button. Verify that an attachment appears in the Item Content window. Click the Save Item> button.
Congratulations! Your portfolio should
now have a new item!
(It will appear as a blue
link with the
title of your presentation)
STEP 3) Test your Breeze presentation online.
View the new item in your portfolio by clicking on the link(s). Verify that your Breeze presentation plays back as intended.
STEP 4) Your instructor may have you email them the link to your presentation, have the link placed in a UAS Online Task or inserted into an online discussion. For any of these methods the instructions below will show you how to capture the URL.
At
the top of the Breeze
Presentation window is an address bar with a URL.
(For example:
https://uascentral.uas.alaska.edu/onlinelib/_portfolios/JNACM1/JNACM1_0817/)
You can select this URL and copy/paste it into an e-mail message or a discussion board post (or however your instructor would like to receive the link to your presentation.) Anyone clicking on that URL in the future will be taken directly to your Breeze presentation.
