1. Click **Add Content** inside the playlist.  
2. Choose from:
* **Courses** (entire courses).

3. Use the **search bar** and **filters** to find the right content quickly.

After creating and organizing your playlist:

1. Go to the **Assign** option within the playlist.  
2. Choose to assign it to:
* **Individual users**, or  
* **Groups** (if your institution uses groups in MyStudio).  
3. Once assigned, the playlist will appear in the **My Playlists tab** of learners’ dashboards in the LMS.

## In Summary

* Create a new playlist via the **Create button** or the **Playlists section**.
