Profile Photos

Shawn.P.251

Has anyone implemented some type of integration of student and faculty profile photos from a profile image database of sorts? The idea is to have our student's official university photos populate their Brightspace profile instead of students posting whatever they want. We do this on another LMS for a variety of reasons.

Is this doable on Brightspace?

Thanks for any comments, suggestions.

Hi Shawn,
Yes, user profile images can be uploaded using the Valence APIs.
The following resources will be helpful:

• Profile https://docs.valence.desire2learn.com/res/user.html#id3
• https://docs.valence.desire2learn.com/basic/fileupload.html
• Community post - Profile Image Upload Post Content

Hope that helps!

Great idea!

Thanks Chris. Do you know if this is something DL2 Support can setup and implement for us? I'm not a developer and this would be something very foreign to me.
