Share H5P Content


Sharing H5P content can be easily done by changing the settings of the H5P content already placed in a Moodle page.  H5P content files will have a .h5p file extension.  Once downloaded, the H5P content can be shared between course, colleagues or saved for later use.  




1. Log into a Moodle course where the H5P content is located and get to the Content Bank in the Contextual menu, under More. 


Click "More" then click "Content Bank"



2. Select the H5P activity you want to download from the Content Bank.
