  4. Then input a Name for the link, which will appear in the Course Menu.

  5. If you want students to have immediate access, check Available to Users. If unchecked, the tool link will remain hidden from students until you change the setting.

  6. Click Submit.

  7. Once added, the tool link will appear at the bottom of the Course Menu. To reposition it, hover your cursor over the left side of the tool link until you see the 4-directional arrow. Then click and drag the tool link to the desired location.
