What is the max length of the data column of type "unique identifier"?

Preventing Data Set files from being zipped?
My organization has blocked .zip files for security purposes. However, it seems as if all reports run from the Data Hub are only exported as .zip files. Is there any way, such as a configuration setting, that would allow me to export the BDS/ADS reports as native .csv files instead of .zip files?

Is there a plan to allow appropriate instructor-level access to Data Hub?
Right now, we—as admins—need to pull reports for our instructors. This is because "the Data Hub tool can only be used at the org level and reports generated from within the Data Hub tool contain all org data." (from d2l's documentation). It would be nice if there was a way to allow Data Hub to be pre-filtered to only show…

What is the path to get org unit paths?
This API route - PUT /d2l/api/lp/(version)/orgstructure/(orgUnitId) - requires Path as part of the OrgUnit.OrgUnitProperties { "Identifier": <string:D2LID>, "Name": <string>, "Code": <string>|null, "Path": <string>, "Type": { <composite:OrgUnit.OrgUnitTypeInfo> } } However, the similar GET call does not return Path.

We can pull login times, course access times, but these are start times. Does anyone have a way to get to elapsed time in the LMS? I'd even take login, logout, though I have a feeling that most people working from home simply set their login time out. But if it can time out, there must be an elapsed time somewhere, and a…

Can we get clarification about differential data sets?
It's not clear to me from reading the documentation if every differential data set contains changes relative to the preceding differential data set or not. Consider: * Monday 4am - Full data set is generated * Monday 8am - Diff data set is generated * Tuesday 8am - Diff data set is generated * Wednesday 8am - Diff data set…
