Can I view all learners' average time spent in a quiz?

Hi, is there an endpoint to get information on course progress (target information in column Content Completed)? Best regards,

Is there any way in order to create an intelligent agent and copy it across multiple courses and use replacement information other than the basic replacement strings within the email. As in have a (possibly external) database of information and phrases and place them in the email using custom replacement strings. Possibly…

Hi, How do I reset individual user progress in a course? Also, how do I reset course progress for all users without without deleting the resources? Best regards, Sasha Bradic

Hi, Is it possible to create a site wide survey? The idea is that users can access the survey from any course. There would be no need to enrol them or for them to enrol in a course to view and answer the survey. The link can be added to the navigation bar or to the widget in the course offering. Best regards,

Hi, I need to set Intelligent Agent to send an email when user completes a course 100%. The problem I'm having is that some of my courses have release conditions. For example, I have a course that has 5 modules. First module has 4 pretest quizzes, and other 4 modules are linked to those quizzes. For example, if a user…

I am trying to figure out if there is any way to track whether a user has completely watched a video in a course or not. I don't really understand the difference between completed content and content visited when you are talking about a web page with an embedded video link or a video page. Can Brightspace only consider the…

I am trying to upload using instructor login. The package is .zip and the size is 452 kb. Maximum length of file name in the package is 65 characters. There is no special characters in file names inside the package. It is getting uploaded from my desktop/laptop on D2L successfully, but the error "Oops, your file could not…

Hi D2L and ReadSpeaker Clients, In the last rolling update from D2L, something happened that caused the D2L to skip the ReadSpeaker webReader player in quizzes. D2L currently has an internal/defect ticket (#01882671,) and they are currently working with ReadSpeaker developers to correct the issue. Since ReadSpeaker does…

Is it possible to give learners a set number of days/weeks to complete a quiz irrespective of when they have been enrolled? In other words, there is a rolling enrolment and every learner automatically gets the same number of days/weeks to complete the quiz. So, learners have different end dates based on when they were…

Hi folks, New Brightspace user, and my company is currently investigating how to track video completion as part of our onboarding process. Does anyone know of a way to have video playback to a certain percentage to count as automatic content completion? Thanks! Jessica

We have organized our course offerings under different Programs (e.g. All Staff, New Hires, Professional Learning, Leadership Development). I would like to display ONLY these Programs under the My Courses Widget. Is there a way to 'hide' the list of courses that are currently under a Program titled "Brightspace…

Hi, Can I get real course access report on how many times users access the course in 1 day? Data hub report only shows 1 access per user and the time is stamped with the time the report was made. It's the same for all users. It's the same in the Insights Portal. Are there any rules that account the access as course access?…

Hey all, last week I asked about translating courses: I exported the course as a Brightspace package, sent the xml files for translation, and re-imported it into the empty German course offering. It didn't work. I keep getting variations of the error below. After various attempts to troubleshoot the German translated xml…

Hello, I was ask to come up with high level approach to pull data from D2L-Cloud data to a on premise SQL Server database, and need to understand how much work is involved. What components do I need to integrate for a smooth data transfer. What are my options: 1) Can the D2L be scheduled to perform data sets exports to an…

Currently, our Brightspace environment and all our courses are English-only. Someone recently asked for two courses to be translated into German. How does Brightspace handle translated content? I see that we can import language packs (https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/4231-import-or-export-a-language-pack)…

Hi, is there a way to find out who deactivated the user and is there a way to set automatic deactivation of user after being inactive for specific period of time? The first part of question also relates to can I see specific actions report that user did in session? Thanks. Best regards, Sasa Bradic
