Re: I want to know will my books for my Paralegal class be delivered to my home address
Hi Lakesha
This question does not appear to be something the Brightspace Community would be able to address. Typically the resources you are accessing via Brightspace are online/digital in nature. Any hardcopy resources would be external to the Learning Platform and you would have to raise this question with the course's instructor (or whomever you made such arrangements with).
Best regards
Matt
Whitelist emails?
Our G-suite organization is flagging emails from Brightspace as "external" and "potentially dangerous". In order to fix this, we need to know the IP address that our Brightspace emails come from.
Our email address we're using is: brightspace@mail.learn.sewanee.edu
Is there any way to find out an IP address that those emails are coming from so we can whitelist the address in G-suite?

thanks- that's exactly what I was wondering, yes I meant replace string field :)
Re: Known Issues related to the Assignment Annotation Tool
Hi Mike,
Thanks for putting this post together and for bringing it to my attention.
To give you some background, the Assignment Annotations tool is powered by a 3rd party tool and many of the defects shown here were caused by issues with the tool itself. We file tickets with the provider but we are at their mercy for updates and we have been waiting for 3+ months for the latest update/fixes.
Luckily, the update for Annotations was released last week and we think it will fix many of the bugs, especially for the language related ones but we need to be sure and wait for the testing to complete before we push out the update, lest we introduce new defects.
My goal is to complete the testing, and work with the release team to hotfix certain high impact and high case count defects (such as French Characters Not Saving in Assignment Annotations). Unfortunately, we may not be able to fix all defects but we will triage, review and prioritize the remaining defects accordingly.
Please keep an eye on the Fixed Issues List as I will update all of the fixed tickets when we have more to share once the testing has been completed. If you have questions, please contact your D2L representative for additional details.
Kind regards,
Jackie

Re: New Thought Leadership Notifications
Who makes the decision on which proposed new features get worked on? I see users who have offered their suggested improvements. Why is one suggestion worked on and implemented and other suggestions left hanging?
Re: New Thought Leadership Notifications
Good day John,
A number of factors go into building and releasing a feature including customer feedback (PIE is a great place to make your voice heard), research and studies, advisory groups, customers, conferences, here in the community and through your account manager. We have a 6 month roadmap that we follow and which is publicly available.
More information on all this is here:
Let me know if you'd like to speak more about this.
Thanks for your question,
Pamela
Re: Intelligent Agent
I realized now that I can use {InitiatingUser} in most cases. My administrator is working on unlocking the classlist in the address book.
Re: Can discussions be shared among two or more courses?
Thank you Chris. This is what I thought, but I wanted to make sure there wasn't something I didn't know about. I will submit the idea to the exchange!
Re: Inline feedback not displaying checkmarks
Ah, good detective work! The great thing about you posting that here is that someone else will be able to discover the answer if they hit this issue in future.
Have a great week too!
