May I use Brightspace as my LMS for my own web application?
Hello community. I'm trying to build an educative course for my university and I don't want to place it on Brightspace, I want to make it as external tool. There's a way I could use Brightspace as a bridge between Educaplay/Kahoot to my web application so I can save the results and update them on my own database? Thank you!

Is there a limit to the # of tiles that can be displayed in the Visual Table of Contents widget?
I thought for sure I used to be able to display 16 tiles (one for each week, all on the same page) in the Visual Table of Contents widget. Now it seems to be limited to 12, unless you select "View All," and then they display in giant size with a squashed image. Am I just imagining this?

Hi, I want to create a project where users can extract their registered courses, but I do not know if the API allows that access to students or if it's even feasible. Is there any resource I can refer to to find out what API calls I, as a student, can make? Thank you, Manmilan

Adding start-end dates to the Topic, those dates do correctly appear on the…
