Issuing A Mass Brightspace Certificate
I have the ability to create certificates - but I am looking to potentially send a certificate to a mass group of student's that received a Dean's List distinction for their grade performance.

New community login
Hello…. Some feedback on the new community SSO. Directions were a little lengthy, and started with the ASC, which I doubt is your largest user base. Password field only allows 16 characters? Why, you want weak passwords? No 2FA! Wow, I thought that every technology company is trying to support at least TOTP, let alone FIDO…

On this new Brightspace Community, there needs to be a Share button to share the initial post.
I need a better way to share posts on this community. For example when I Ask a Question and get a response. I get an email with a link/button to see the response that brings me right to the comment. This is a good feature. However, if I copy the URL while reading the new comment it gives me a URL with a direct link to the…
