That permission is dependent on your organization - but I would reach out to your Brightspace Admin to see

Re: How to extend the deadline for a single student in a discussion
Hi @Matthew.W.752 ,
Thanks for reaching out to Community with this excellent question. It got me curious also, so I've reached out to our Discussions experts to find out more. Grateful to be learning with you!
Re: Can students view their attendance
Hi Cathy,
Students are able to see their attendance provided a few things.
- The Attendance tool is made available to them in the NavBar
- Permission to view the Attendance tool is turned on.
If both of these things are true then students will be able to see their attendance, and theirs only. They will not have visibility on attendance of others in their course.

Re: Help with uploading photo image to course offering via API
Just tried it with Postman with the following to my test brightspace.
PUT {{BrightspaceDomain}}/d2l/api/lp/{{lpversion}}/courses/{{orgunitid}}/image
Body form-data key = Image Value = RobinResize.jpg (my image file)
Below is the cURL generated by Postman to do the same command with my domain name removed and the accesstoken removed and replace with the word AccessToken.
curl --location --request PUT 'https://xxxxxxxxxx.desire2learn.com/d2l/api/lp/1.44/courses/13733/image' \--header 'Authorization: Bearer AccessToken' \--form 'Image=@"/C:/Users/ipeach/OneDrive - D2L Corporation/Pictures/RobinResize.jpg"'
Hope it helps.
Re: New User Email Issue
Hi Benoit,
When editing the Template Properties you can restore the fields back to their original values by selecting the blue Restore Default icon to the right of the input field as shown below.
Is it possible you have edited the Name From: {HelpDeskName} and Email From: {HelpDeskEmail} values? These values are set in the Config. Variable Browser or by your D2L Support representative.
If you are intending to send email from your Brightspace environment 'on behalf of' your institutions email domain additional configurations & settings are necessary to allow D2L to send mail on your behalf. If these changes are not made correctly, or not in-place, email sent from Brightspace may end up in the recipients Spam/Trash folder or blocked by your institutions mail server.
Community resources outlining what is necessary are available from:
If in doubt please contact the D2L Support team for additional guidance on what is required.
Hope that helps!
Re: Deleting a Student's Submission
Hello @Yeslech,
Thank you for reaching out to us via Brightspace Community!
May I suggest you try deleting the assignment submission by following the below steps:
- On the assignment submissions page
- Go to the user whose assignment needs to be deleted
- Select the checkbox and click on the delete option (screenshot attached)
If in case the user has multiple submissions but only one needs to be deleted, then you can use the individual submission option.
I hope this helps!
Kind Regards,
Rusha

Re: Move Lesson back into Unit
Hi Kara,
I've done some testing and am assuming you are using the Classic content experience. Using the Lesson content experience I was unable to drag/reorder a Unit to be a child/sub-unit of another Unit.
Regardless of the Content experience being used, the easiest way to resolve the issue is to use/switch to the Classic content experience. Navigate to the Content tool, click on the Table of Contents and select the Bulk Edit. This will provide you an alternative view through which you can drag and drop the modules/sub-modules to their right order.
The following resource may be helpful -
If the issue persists or you don't make any progress please reach out to the D2L Support team who can assist you with making the change.
Hope that helps!
Re: What are you using for course evaluations?
Overall Lansing Community College has had a better experience using Blue for course evaluations than our previous solution IDEA.
