Report for inactive vs. active users

How long does it take for BDS 9 to take effect once enabled?

Has anyone used Brightspace datasets to identify group enrolments?
I'm looking for a way to manage bulk group enrolments for specific types of groups that are managed centrally.

There doesn't seem to be a Brightspace…

Help accessing additional data points
Greetings, I hope all is well. I am writing on behalf of a colleague who is interested in seeing if there is a way to access additional data points for reporting.
