Question about Grading Display
I’ve noticed that some of the cells in my grading sheet appear uncolored, even though the students submitted their work on time, in the same way, and at the same time as others whose items are correctly colored.

Does Brightspace Annotation Tools has Templated Comments like in Turnitin Feedback Studio?
Hi, our academic find the Templated Comments like in Turnitin Feedback Studio really useful. However, for record management compliance we can only do marking in the Brightspace Annotation tools. The Templated Comments are customisable and could increase the speed, accuracy and the consistency in marking and feedback…

Brightspace Awards API - mass download all issued badges or certificates?
I'm trying to use Postman to write some Python to batch download all Awards issued organization-wide. I *think* that I'd need to make a GET call to https://{{BrightspaceDomain}}/d2l/api/bas/{{version}}/library/templates (no parameters) to get the full list of certificate templates that can be issued. I make that call but…

Would anyone be willing…

Is there an icon on the Enter Grades page that shows students in progress in a quiz?
In the Blackboard original Grade Centre, there is an icon (a little blue pie chart) that indicates students are in progress with a Test. Since the Grade Centre displays the whole class, it is a convenient way to monitor how many students are currently completing a Test in Blackboard. Is there a way to enable something…

Regarding the Course Calendar Feature
Hello Community, We are fairly new users to Brightspace. A couple instructors who are early adopters have some questions regarding the functionality of the Calendar tool.

New assignment and new comment notification icons gone
Hi, all of a sudden red icons that appeared on each of our courses notifying us of how many new assignments and new comments were posted are gone so now instructors have to get into grading inside the course to see new assignments. Any help with bringing those notification icons back? I'm attaching a screenshot of what it…

Has anyone gotten a question mark on a Quiz?
I have an instructor who is getting this error message on a Quiz under the content tab. He needed to adjust a question (which he could through the quiz itself). However, this specific question pool didn't show up in his question library. Every other pool was there except this one. Could someone offer assistance to help me…

Is there a way to export an entire class' marks broken down by rubric criterion for an assignment?
I associated a rubric with an assignment. The gradebook shows the summation of the rubric marks, but I'd like a spreadsheet with the grades for every student and what they received for each criterion. Is this possible in D2L? I am an instructor.

Can you download any of the instructor training courses from the community into Brightspace?
D2L used to have courses that were available for import into D2L for faculty training. Does this option still exist? I would like to be able to offer faculty training without having to leave our Brightspace instance.

How can I obtain the assignment ID when the external tool launches?
Hi, I've integrated an external tool into Brightspace using deep linking, and everything works it launches correctly. I've also sent back a deep linking response, which has been added as my external tool link to the assignment. However, after checking the payload I received from the tool launch, I noticed that there is no…
