ThingLink Guides

All staff and students can create ThingLink accounts to develop digital assets into interactive and XR content using tags to embed or link to videos, images, audio, text and more. Additionally, staff and students may be able to access ThingLink resources without needing to create an account first (depending on the privacy settings of resources).

You can login via the ThingLink Azure login page using your University credentials. You do not need to create an account to interact with ThingLink resources, but will need one to create your own ThingLink content.

Get Started: Create a ThingLink account

Follow the steps outlined to create a University of Leeds ThingLink account so you can get started with creating your own interactive content.

Create interactive and XR content with ThingLink

Learn how to create ThingLink resources. Multiple options are available for creating, uploading or searching for content. You can then add tags to make your content interactive.
