Manage Files and NCE
Hello! In the old Content experience, one was able to Upload a file from a computer to add to a module but then also select the location of that file within Manage files (see attached image). Now in New Content Experience, that functionality is lost. I understand that I can go to Manage Files and then select the Parent…

Overwriting a file in NCE not working
Hello, Faculty are having issues with overwriting files in NCE. When adding a file and then being prompted to overwrite the file or create a new file, the overwrite/replace option doesn't work.

Course files all deleted!
It appears someone has deleted every single file in one of our courses! They've done it from the 'Manage Files' section rather than from within content because the modules and topics themselves are still there. I've tried finding out through the data hub when it happened and who did it, but the only option I can see is…

What does 'Manage Files' in the Tool Access report refer to?
The Tool Access report shows a table and a pie chart representing the percentage of overall views for each tool within a selected timeframe. One of the tools is 'Manage Files'. It is unlikely to be referring to the file management tool which is not accessible to students. (In the image, only the 'Student' role was…

Imposing a file size limit
I teach in a design program where students are producing documents with a lot of visual elements embedded. Unfortunately, they often submit PDFs that have not been optimized, resulting in huge file sizes that slow the D2L assignment grading interface to a crawl. I'm sure I remember there being a file size cap that…

Can I share the same file page in 2 modules?
I know that I can put the same quiz or assignment in 2 modules, but I can't figure out if this also works for file pages. I have a "Major Assignments Overview" page that includes some context, readings, and then links to the actual assignments (all due later in the class). I'd like to link this page in both the Welcome…

Create File > Accordion Template with PDF Link is Flashing
Hello, I'm using a web page content item with the accordion template, in which I have a pdf link. When anyone clicks on the link it displays the pdf D2L viewer on a new page but the pdf keeps blinking and nothing can be done to change it. Is this a flaw in the build of the web page that it doesn't allow the pdf to be…

Then I would like to create a template that can be used to create our courses that includes links to those two folders so that the information populates all the courses. I have…

Course Files API - Public Files management
I was wondering if it's possible to use the Course Files API to interact with Public Files (such as those available under /shared)? I have a use-case that would benefit from being able to programmatically delete/create/update files in that area, and my initial testing suggests that the Course Files API doesn't see files…

Course Files API - Delete file
When I use the Course Files API to view a file, it works as expected. For example, GET d2l/api/lp/1.44/xxxx/managefiles/file?path=/path/to/file.txt (org id and file name omitted) works completely fine and as expected. Based on the documentation, it would appear that the only thing that should change is instead of using the…
