416 Error when initiating upload
I'm trying to initiate an upload by posting to: /d2l/api/lp/(version)/(orgUnitId)/managefiles/file/upload I'm including the required headers (with the actual token where the placeholder is): { 'Authorization': 'Bearer <TOKEN>', 'X-Upload-Content-Type': 'text/csv', 'X-Upload-Content-Length': '530', 'X-Upload-File-Name':…
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…
Upload Video or Audio files in the Module not showing up in Manage Files Folder
Any idea why a video file that was uploaded using the 'Upload/Create" drop down > Video or Audio is not showing up in the Manage Files folder? if that's not the storage spot where is the file stored?
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…

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…

There is no special characters in file names inside the package. It is getting uploaded from my desktop/laptop on D2L successfully, but the error "Oops, your file could not…
Share course content without copying between Org Units
Is it possible to add files to one course and make them accessible from other courses?
Where I can I get customer suport or guidance on an issue?
I am finding that when I course copy a D2L, my visual media in my question libraries end up with broken links.
