Lesson access settings give you a few options for when you want your lessons to become available. You can also choose certain lessons to offer for free, as sample lessons. And perhaps most importantly, this is where you assign a lesson to a specific course. Let’s take a look at the options.

Associated Course
In order for a lesson to show up within your course content, you need to associate it with a course. This setting is how you do that.

Next to Associated Course, click the dropdown menu, and choose the course to which this lesson belongs

NOTE
If you’ve enabled shared course steps, this field will be disabled, as lessons can be associated with more than one course.
