Re: How do I reliably add Sections to Groups for Lab Courses to manage due dates?
Hey there! Yep, I offered something like that as a workaround, and suggested that they could just copy the previous assignment for that day's sections to keep the same Release Conditions. However, with the way the content is already loaded in every class at the beginning of the semester by someone else, I'm not sure if this method is less or more tedious for my client. Thanks for the input!
Data Set that includes Cascading Enrollments?
Is there a data set that includes cascading enrollment data for Course Offerings and Course Sections?
Neither 'Enrollments and Withdrawals' nor 'User Enrollments' appears to include cascading enrollments.
Thanks
Re: Integrate with Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive
Hello Colt,
Thank you for reaching out.
There is a single tool called Google Workspace that must be enabled going forward for any Google File Picker functionality to work. You can go to Admin Settings > Organization Tools to enable this.
When this tool is enabled, two new permissions called
Can add files from a personal Google account
and
Can add files from managed Google account
are available. These permissions control which roles may access Google files to add or link them to Brightspace.
I hope this information helps!
Best regards,
Abrar

Re: How can a Course Home module be force-applied across an organization's Brightspace environment?
Hi Kourtnie,
Thank you for reaching out with your question about a solution to include specific content modules by default each time when a course is created in the LE via your SIS integration.
It appears that you are currently using IPSIS Integration 1.0. Please allow me to look into a possible solution for this specific integration and I will update you with more information.
Thank you,
John
Re: Accessing Product Idea Exchange
Hello @John.L.1340,
Thank you for your question in our Community. You ended up in the right place for support at the FAQ you linked. Based on what I can see from our end, your User account is still not registered properly to allow you access to PIE.
Firstly, may I ask that you try to update your user account via the steps in the article again?
Please note that you must select your organization from the dropdown menu as outlined in Step 4. Simply typing your organization into the field (regardless of if it matches the listed option from the dropdown) does not complete your registration correctly.
You mention in your question that you have access to D2L Academy but not PIE, when normally if your signup process is invalid you should have access to neither. Therefore, we may require further steps to help address your issue and we appreciate your patience.
Regardless, if trying the steps outlined in the article again does not solve your issue, please reach out to us at questions@community.d2l.com.
Re: Release Notes Updates
The October 2025/20.25.10 Preview Release Notes are now live and ready for review! 🔍️
Please note, this is only a preview for the upcoming Brightspace version, which we will begin to roll out on October 2, 2025. All features described are subject to change before then.
Re: D2L is Reheating PIE!
Can I make a suggestion that placing brand new submissions in a category of "NOT UNDER CONSIDERATION" in upper case red text feels totally counter to what I understood to be the purpose of PIE, and unnecessarily dismissive of the genuine pain points with the platform that clients are sharing with you.
It feels like a red reject stamp has been put on the idea before the community has had a chance to comment on whether this is also an issue for them.
A rewording to something like "Awaiting community feedback" (and not in red text) would better aligned with what I understood PIE to be about, and more respectful to people who are taking the time to share their ideas.
I was working updating my discussion and assignments and the content of my course is now blocked
The above message appears every time my students or I go to course CONTENT;
Any idea of what has happened or what can be done? My IT is working on it but never saw this before…
thanks
Re: Setting Link Default for Hyprlinks Copied in from a Word document?
Thanks, Stefanie!
The D2L Support Team helped me find a bit of a workaround with copying the links from within the online Microsoft Word browser instead of from within the Microsoft Word desktop app. For whatever reason, the "open in new window" is retained when copying from the browser instead of the desktop.
