Brightspace Data Sets

Is there a listing of Brightspace data sets that are limited to two years of historical data?
Or is the only limit 150 million rows.? Reference: https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/4507-about-data-hub#data-limits All Brightspace Data Sets adhere to the default system limit to return 150 million rows of the most recent data. Thanks, Charles

Dataset for "Discover" courses?
Is there any dataset for org units that indicates if a course is part of Discover? We'd like to build a custom application to let external users create guest accounts in Brightspace and enroll in Discover courses, but would like to simplify the process by giving guests a list of the available courses to enroll in. This way…
Teacher Contact Widget - is there a data set recording if this Widget is setup or not?
I want to report on if students can see the Teacher Contact info in their Org Units. The Teacher Contact Widget is in each Org Unit and by default is blank. To become visible a teacher needs to complete the Setup. Is there data, or a data set which shows if a Teacher Contact Widget is Setup or not? i.e. a teacher has…
Export the Syllabus created using the Brightspace HTML tools
In either classic or new content experience, if we create our syllabi using the Brightspace HTML tools - can we then export the syllabi in a format that could be uploaded to a database?
Help with Postman and API connection
I'm new to working with APIs and have a project here at the college that I need to access the Datasets available in the Brightspace API. I'm trying to follow the "Learn Postman with Paul" course found here. And I'm stuck. My goal is to access the Datasets for All Grades, Final Grades, Content Progress and Learner Usage. To…
Survey - Reports Generation and Editing
Hello D2L community, We have recently opened a new module in our D2L course shell, and as a part of this learning journey, we have set up surveys. I would like to know if there is any way we can generate reports to see the students' numbers (part of our university ID) without leveraging that question in the survey itself.…
Random selection from different lists
Not a quiz question! Say you have 4 lists of items, how can I randomly select one item from each list and show the 4 item results. Say I have 30 Students - so each would have a random 4 item list. Can this be programed - so it can be used with varied number of lists? And the lists may have numbers, words, or sentences.
Any experience with Learning Outcomes and Brightspace Data Sets?
We have set up our program learning outcomes in the Learning Outcomes tool within Brightspace. We don't have the premier version of Brightspace with the dashboards, so are stuck with the 14+ Brightspace Data Sets we need to join to help us collect information. Problem is: the Outcomes Details data set doesn't seem to be…
Is there a dataset that shows which content objects are optional/required?
I'm trying to find a list of all pages that are marked as optional. I searched Content data sets - Brightspace and didn't see a column that provides this detail.
Announcements Data Set - IsPinned flag?
Are there plans to add a field to the Announcements Brightspace Data Set to indicate if it is a pinned announcement or not?
May I use Brightspace as my LMS for my own web application?
Hello community. I'm trying to build an educative course for my university and I don't want to place it on Brightspace, I want to make it as external tool. There's a way I could use Brightspace as a bridge between Educaplay/Kahoot to my web application so I can save the results and update them on my own database? Thank you!
How to interpret Realease Condition data in the datasets?
I'm attempting to create a report showing the release conditions for a particular course's module. I can get the course, and the module using contentobjects and organizationalunits, but pulling anything usable from releaseconditionobjects has been fruitless. Can anyone give me the proper joins and where statements to get…
How can I download survey completion summaries?
