Re: Missing enrollment users
Hello @Colt.K.2845,
Thank you for contacting the Brightspace Community with your question.
Based on the situation you described, it seems that the role you used to enroll the user may be missing a setting that allows visibility in the Classlist. Please review the following path and image for guidance:
Admin Tools > Roles and Permissions > Your Role > Edit Settings
For more detailed guidance, please refer to the following article from the Brightspace Community
I hope this information is helpful.

Re: Release Notes Updates
@Giles.A.619 I reached out to the team that developed this feature, and their response is as follows:
You are correct that this will only appear in Brightspace system menus. It is not set up for any links that are created by Students/Instructors/Administrators.
I hope this helps!

Re: How do you create a stand alone survey, which is not tied it to a specific course?
Thanks for reaching out through the Community!
Yes, you can add a survey created at the organizational level to a course. However, please note that the Survey tool captures data at the Org Unit where the survey was originally created. This means that the responses are tied to the Org level, not to the specific course offering where the survey was linked or launched.
Currently, there's no functionality that segments or tags the responses based on the course from which the survey was accessed.
There are existing feature requests in the Product Idea Exchange (PIE) that align with this behavior. You can create a new idea or upvote any existing ideas using the link below:
Brightspace Community Idea Site: Submissions (brightidea.com)
Let me know if you have any further questions!
Thanks

I hope Bhoomika's response will help to understand how the survey works within Brightspace.

Re: Leadership 201
Hi @Jane.O.1385
Thank you so much for reaching out to us here at the Brightspace Community!
The Activity Feed exercise has been removed from the Leadership 201 course at this time. To complete the course and earn the associated D2L Academy Badge, the only current requirement is to visit all content modules and topics in the Leadership 201 course.
Congratulations on completing most of the D2L Academy badge courses! That’s an incredible accomplishment and a testament to your dedication to professional learning and enhancing the Brightspace experience for your organization.
We hope you had a great time exploring the courses and picked up some new tips and strategies along the way. Your participation has helped make this challenge such a success!
We’ll be reviewing and verifying results across all participating organizations and will be announcing the winners of the D2L Academy Challenge by August 22nd.
Thanks again for being part of the fun and for your commitment to continuous learning. Please let us know if you have any other questions—we’re happy to help!
Best
