Link to the assignment tool evaluate screen

It used to be possible to create a link to an assignment submission's Evaluate screen using the OrgUnitId, dropbox ID and Submitter Id, which can all be obtained from the API. It seems that the URL format has changed and has a long random looking string as part of it.

I have a use case where a course has multiple submissions, and a requirement to grade them "holistically" rather than each item in isolation, as the context of one item needs to be taken into account to understand the next. So the instructors want to see links to evaluate each of the submissions from a student on a single page rather than clicking in and out of several assignments. (Quick Eval doesn't quite give them what they need). I was expecting this to be a fairly easy bit of code to write, but it appears that the last piece of the jigsaw, the link, is no longer possible.

Have I missed something?

    Hi @Steve.B.446

    Thankyou for reaching out to the Brightspace Community.

    Currently, it is not possible to see links to evaluate each of the submissions from a student on a single page. It is not possible to create a link to an assignment submission's Evaluate screen using the OrgUnitId, dropbox ID and Submitter Id

    You can try creating a quick link to the assignment submission page for any particular assignments and add it into the navbar.

    The better option to view students submission is using the Quick eval page.

    If you would like more options I would suggest the submission of a PIE item, or upvoting one that suits your use case.
