Re: Release Notes Updates
Hi, I have some questions about the AI help tool described in the preview release notes. We currently do NOT link to D2L help, because our site does not necessarily support all the actions displayed in the help. For example, our students cannot edit a discussion post. Our instructors cannot modify their course home pages in any way. Will the AI tool only offer home page management help to our Admins, discussion post editing help to non-students?
Re: Release Notes Updates
Hi @Renee.Judd6243,
That's a great question about the new Brightspace Virtual Assistant (BVA). Every BVA instance is customizable and included in all End User Support packages. In partnership with the End User Support (EUS) team, you would be able to capture your organization’s workflows and processes to present to users, along with the documentation from the broader Community (which now includes Help Docs). Since your organization does not yet subscribe to EUS, your D2L Success Manager can offer more information and set up a demo.

Re: What types of Quiz related resources do you want to see more of?
Thanks for this Stefanie. Re #1, yes, I'll remain active in the PIE community…and thanks for the link to the "Research Participation" opportunity, I'll look into it. Re #2, we can try but frankly, in my opinion, there are no good options for Cloze using existing question types. At best, there are awkward workarounds. One last thing just to clarify, I work with instructors of many different languages, not just English.
Re: Delete Assignment from Grades
Hello @rwoods16 - It will not disappear from Assignment. For best practice, set the Activity to "not in gradebook" before you delete the grade item from Grades. Good Luck!
Re: Pulse App - Compromised Account Message?
Hey @Jason.Henslee8567,
Thanks for reaching out to us here at the Brightspace Community.
Currently, Pulse uses the web browser to sign in which would be through Brightspace. However, I have not heard of an “account compromised” page in Brightspace in the past, so it might be possible it was coming from the SSO/login provider rather than Brightspace. Please keep this thread updated with your explorations!
Re: Release Notes Updates
HI all,
Trying to follow your instructions for Subscribe to and comment on Release Notes Updates and ran into this discrepancy immediately:
We have different roles and access, apparently, so not the same.
It required drilling a bit to find the Notification Prefs from my access point!
Had to select Account & Privacy Settings and scroll to find Notification Prefs.
Thanks,
Jane
