1 Building Block Installation - Admins Overview To use your Blackboard Server with Panopto, you first need to install the Panopto Building Block on your Blackboard server. You then need to add Blackboard as an Identity Provider on your Panopto Server. If you have previously installed and configured the Panopto Blackboard Building Block, you just need to install the new block over the old one. If the existing block is removed, any custom menu links in courses referencing the block will be eliminated. Note: Hosted customers will require assistance from our Support Team in order to add Blackboard as an Identity Provider to their Hosted site.
