What You’ll Do
Learn how to navigate your Playbook using the Quest Path sidebar and Playbook map, start or resume quests, complete quizzes, and track your progress throughout your learning journey.
Before You Start
Make sure you have:
Access to a Playbook through a Course or an individual purchase
Successfully opened the Authura platform
An active internet connection
Steps
1. Open Your Playbook
Open the Playbooks section and select the Playbook you want to work through.
When the Playbook opens, you'll see the Playbook map and the Quest Path sidebar.
The Playbook top bar displays:
Playbook name
Total stars earned
Number of completed quests
Start or Continue button
Paint icon for changing the colour theme
2. Use the Quest Path Sidebar
The Quest Path sidebar appears on the left side of the Playbook and helps you quickly move between quests.
The sidebar includes three sections:
All Quests — shows the full Playbook structure and every quest in order
Bookmarked Quests — shows quests you've saved for quick access
Recent Quests — shows quests you've visited recently
Select any quest from the sidebar to jump directly to that quest on the Playbook map.
You can also use the Unpin navigation panel option to collapse or expand the sidebar as needed.
3. Navigate the Playbook Map
The Playbook map is the main navigation view and acts as a visual roadmap of your learning journey.
To move around the map:
Click and drag to move across the Playbook
Scroll to zoom in or out
As you complete quests, the map updates to reflect your progress.
Hover over any quest to view additional details, including:
Quest type
Completion percentage
Stars earned
Performance statistics
Tip: If you're returning to a Playbook after a break, use the Recent Quests section in the Quest Path sidebar to quickly jump back to where you left off.

When you find the quest you want to work on, select Start or Resume.
This opens the quest experience.
Inside a quest, the top bar shows:

5. Work Through the Quest
Read or interact with the quest content as you progress.
An Authura AI assistant panel is available inside the quest if you need help understanding the material.

6. Complete the Quiz or Activity
After working through the content:
Select Start Quiz for standard quests
Select Start Activity for Game Quests
Answer each question and continue through the assessment.
If you answer incorrectly, a brief explanation appears before the next question is shown.
