I have someone asking about their grade items from external tools not showing in the Calendar or Assignment list. I was wondering if there is a custom parameter in the lineitem service that will flag a grade item to be displayed on the calendar with the startDateTime and endDateTime? If not, do you have any recommended on…

Hello, 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…

Does anybody know if there's a quiz setting that would give a student feedback each time they answer a question instead of all at the end?

Right now a student can submit an exam or test that was done in a restricted (classroom) environment and they can leave the room and can later download the submitted assignment before I have a chance to hide the folder from users.

My quiz is structured around a number of cases: the test-taker must read a paragraph for the necessary context to answer a set of questions (multiple choice). I understand this can be done by creating Sections and inserting the case text in the Section. However, I also need to use the Question Pool function, meaning that…

The goal is, the student clicks on the webapp, it redirects for OAuth and after that the backend gets an access token. What I want is after this step, is to check what courses the user is in. I was looking through the documentation and I…

I have a small webapp that I want students from Brightspace LMS to use for their courses. The app is supposed to display different data based on each course the student is enrolled in. My idea of implementing that was to include the URL for the app in the course page, then when a student clicks it, it redirects them to the…

We have a large number of unused SCORM files on our platform (for various reasons, including when we would upload new versions of SCORM files before we knew we could upload a new version by overwriting the old one). When we upload the SCORMs, they aren't included in the course file folder. I can't find the actual folder…

How would I arrange sections of one course offering to have section dedicated discussions so discussion posts are only visible to other section members? How do I best align the settings on each discussion to only be available to one of ten sections?

We upload our HTML pages to the LOR to pull to multiple course offerings. We found that when we link to LOR HTML pages with practices, the practices show "Error Loading Practice."

Hey, Im new here. I working on a small webapp that I want to connect with Brightspace LMS.

Maybe there is some other way how I can add my LTI 1.3 tool to the dev instance? Please, advice. Thank you!

My university manages instructors posting a weekly announcement by scanning their announcement Start Date. However, the Start Date defaults to the date the announcement is first saved. If saved as a draft, the announcement has not yet been posted. To avoid receiving warning messages about not posting an announcement, the…

At a high level: I am trying to use the course-import endpoint to upload a SCORM package zip file. In the weeds: I am able to hit other Brightspace APIs (including successfully authenticating) using Postman, but I am getting "400" errors when trying to import a course zip file using Brightspace's course-import API…

On at least one occasion when I upload a course SCORM zip file with the upload API, when I check the status, it failed with a status of "PROCESSINGFAILED." (Other uploads succeed.) Is there a way to get additional information? Or does anyone know what could cause upload processing to fail? The zip file is only about 18 MB.…
