History Page Guide

The History page in ClassCraft AI allows you to view a detailed record of your previously generated resources. This page is accessible by clicking your name in the top-right dropdown menu and selecting History. It provides a centralised list of all your past activity, along with options to download or manage your generated files.

Key Features​

1. Filters​

At the top of the History page, you can filter your results to quickly locate specific resources:

  • Filter by Generator Name: Select a specific tool (e.g., "H5P Creator" or "Lesson Plan") to view only resources created with that tool.
  • Pagination: Navigate through your history using the pagination controls at the bottom of the page.

2. Request Parameters​

The table displays a detailed record of your resource generation, including:

  • Generator Name: The name of the tool used to generate the resource.
  • Request Parameters: Details about the settings or inputs you used, such as topics, styles, or unit descriptors.
  • Created At: The timestamp of when the resource was generated.
  • Download Options: File download links, if available.

3. Download Availability​

Files Automatically Available:​

For some tools (e.g., PowerPoint Presentation, H5P Creator), files are generated automatically at the time of resource creation. This is to provide a preview of the resource on-screen. These files are always available for download from the History page, even if they were not downloaded at the time of creation.

Files Created on Demand:​

For other tools (e.g., Lesson Plan, Multiple Choice Questions), files are only generated when explicitly downloaded at the time of creation. If you did not download the file immediately, it will not be available retrospectively in your history.

How to Use the History Page​

Accessing Your History​

  1. Click your name in the top-right dropdown menu.
  2. Select History from the menu.
  3. View the list of your previously generated resources.

Filtering Results​

  1. Use the Filter by Generator Name dropdown to select a specific tool and narrow down your results.
  2. Navigate through your records using the pagination controls to find older entries.

Downloading Files​

  1. Locate the resource you want to download in the Download column.
  2. Click the download icon for the desired format (e.g., PDF, DOCX, PPTX, or H5P).
  3. If no download link is available for a resource, it means the file was not generated at the time of creation. You will need to recreate the resource to download it.

FAQs​

Why can't I download some files from the History page?​

Files for certain tools (e.g., Lesson Plan, Multiple Choice Questions) are only generated when you explicitly download them at the time of creation. If you did not download the file initially, it will not be available in your history.

Are my files stored indefinitely?​

No, generated files are automatically retained for 30 days. Older files are deleted to save space.

Can I export all files at once?​

Yes, click the Export All Files button at the top of the History page to download all currently available files.

What happens if I need a file that is no longer available?​

If a file has been deleted or was never generated, you can recreate the resource using the corresponding tool in ClassCraft AI.

Tips for Managing Your History​

  • Download Files Promptly: For tools that generate files on demand, download your files immediately after creating them to ensure they are accessible in the future.
  • Use Filters: Narrow your results by filtering by generator name to quickly locate specific resources.
  • Export Regularly: Use the Export All Files option to keep a local backup of your generated files.

Conclusion​

The History page provides an organised view of your past resource generation activity, with tools to filter, manage, and download your files. By understanding how file availability works, you can ensure seamless access to your generated content whenever needed.
