I am required to accommodate students who need to be able to go back and forth through quiz questions. I can't find a way to manage special access to provide this flexibility. How can I do this?
We are looking for a way to bulk edit/update Special Access for Assignments so that admins do not have to manually add these to every individual assignment. We are looking for a way to automate special access for our students with reasonable adjustments using API. If you've experimented with this before we'd be super keen…

Do you know how a coordinator can download a list of students who have been given special access. I have one coordinator with multiple cohorts and markers, and she has been trying to do the right thing entering special access for all students - even 7 day extensions. She also has a few with much longer extensions. Until…

We teach multiple sections and release different versions of assignments to different sections. These assignments are only open during their section times. Blackboard has adaptive release rules that enable…
We've got a quiz running, where all users have 5 attempts to pass. If they don't pass in 5 attempts they can request extra attempts. We add these using Special Access in the Availability Dates & Conditions menu. It's been working fine since January, but this week although the extra attempts are showing in the Special…
I have a client who is managing several lab courses, scores of sections with thousands of students across I'm not sure how many courses. The labs that meet on different days have different due dates. Right now they are handling this by managing Special Access and setting sue dates for each section. This is quite tedious as…
Can you assign special access for a user across multiple assignments? Or do you have manage special access for each assignment individually? Is there a way to bulk edit special access for students who have accommodations?
