Re: Grammarly and dropbox file submissions
Hi Michael,
As far as I am aware there is no direct integration available for Brightspace. As you have noted Grammarly is available via a plugin available to all major web browsers, and Grammarly desktop apps for Windows and Mac. See https://support.grammarly.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000090851-Grammarly-s-product-offerings.
However, the idea to have a direct integration with Brightspace is a good one and should be submitted to the Product Idea Exchange. Hope that helps!
Is there a way to change the default programming language for code samples?
how do you change line spacing when editing content?
Grammarly and dropbox file submissions
Good Afternoon Everyone,
Is there any way to get Grammarly to process a submitted file in D2L?
The same page we have overall feedback textbox, which grammarly works for me in that area.
But I want grammarly to look at the submitted file while in D2L.
I have a few instructors stating it used to work in the past and when I research I see mention of some kind of issue ~2 years ago that caused a d2l/grammarly disconnect that may be related to this.
Sincerely,
Dropbox document-- issue on my end or students?
This past session I had some papers that open up in the dropbox as a document of random characters. When I downloaded the document, it was the same-- all random characters. Anyone else have this problem? Does it seem to be a problem with D2L, or something on my end, or (I dare not want to think it) a type of cheating to get an extension?
Question flag
Hi,
is there a way or a plugin that can be used to flag a question in a Quiz? The idea is that a learner would have an option to answer a question or if they are not sure flag it for review so they can re-visit it before submitting their quiz.
There is a similar thing in Product Idea Exchange: https://desire2learn.brightidea.com/ideas/D6666, but I was wondering if anybody has a working solution.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,

Creating or importing new users from a course
Good day,
I'm wondering if its possible to customize or even change some of the settings when creating a new user via the Classlist.
For example, if you attempt to use the Create and Enroll user you don't have the option to set a username and the Org Defined ID is a required field.
But if I use Import Users from file option, Org defined ID is not required, I can't set a password and I still can't set a username.
Or perhaps there's a way I can change the username format somewhere in the config variables?
I know, this can be done under Admin functions, but for our usage we only want to let them do this at the course level if at all possible.
Thanks for any help or insight you might be able to provide.

Put Grades Error
I am trying to answer this question:
Will assigning a passing grade also show the exam as completed in Brightspace?
I am trying to put a grade with the api but I keep getting this error "Comments and PrivateComments are mandatory"
This is my payload:
{
"GradeObjectType": 1,
"PointsNumerator": 99,
"Comments": "Great job on the exam!",
"PrivateComments": "Nice"
}
Any ideas of what the problem is?
Thanks
Re: Real time feedback on quizzes
Hey Jesse!
You can do that through the Question Library tab in the Quizzes tool. When you create a question, you can find the 'Add Feedback' option by clicking on the drop-down at the top-right corner. Hope this helps!
