Issue:
I am trying to add a podcast episode to my Collection using the + Add button. The duration is automatically filled in and cannot be edited, but when I try to save, it does not work. I also cannot find the episode in the catalog. I initially thought there might be a 60-minute duration limit.
Cause:
This occurs because Degreed’s content moderation filters block content labeled as explicit. If a podcast episode includes the explicit label (🅴), it is prevented from being added or surfaced in the catalog, regardless of its duration.
Resolution:
You cannot add podcast episodes that are marked with the explicit label (🅴) in Degreed.
To proceed:
- Check whether the podcast episode includes an explicit (🅴) label in its metadata
- If the label is present, the content will be automatically restricted and cannot be added to a Collection
- Search for alternative episodes or sources without the explicit label
Additional Note:
Podcast duration is not limited to 60 minutes. Episodes longer than 1 hour can be added successfully as long as they are not restricted by content moderation.
