API Uploading User Photos
I am trying to upload users Photos using the API. I receive a successful response from each post; however the images do not change. I will post a screenshot of my code in C# below and would greatly appreciate it if someone can see anything wrong with the code.
API & Performance+
Is there API access Performance+ functionality ? What I am wondering is Is it possible to drive P+ via remote control. The idea would be to have multiple data sources only 1 of which is D2L and use these other data sources to filter the data presented to the built-in data tools in P+ and then read the results directly.…
Updating Course Completion Tracking Settings using the API
Is it possible to update Course Completion Tracking Settings using the API?
Scopes Table for LTI Advantage tools that use Client Credentials Flow?
We are developing a tool that is registered as an LTI Advantage and we are using the 'client_credentials' approach to obtain the access token. We also try to call some Brightspace API endpoints (with the authorization header applied). To be able to call these selected API endpoints, we have to authorize the user specifying…
Copy Module and Topics via API
Has anyone had any luck copying a module and topics from one course to another course via api? I designed a module in one course that has topics, this module and topics need to be copied over to a number of courses. We have had issues with using BCC in the past and wish not to use it if we can. Since most of our faculty…

POST /d2l/api/lp/(version)/(orgUnitId)/groupcategories/ not returning Groups.GroupsJobData
I'm not getting back any JSON data from my groupcategories put . I get the response.status ==202 but I can't grab what should be a Group.GroupsJobData. The code does generates the Group Category and the single group that should be in the category. Problem is without the GroupsJobData I can't grab the id of the generated…
Log and Logging API
Has anyone been successful at pulling logs? I've read all the documentation and have tried so many different combinations of parameters but nothing works for: GET /d2l/api/lp/(version)/logging/ GET /d2l/api/lp/(version)/logging/grouped/ The only one that does seem to pull data is GET…
API SCOPES available to Course Home Widgets.
I'm trying to use the forceLogouts LP API call from within a course widget. But I keep getting response.status of 403. I'm doing this so my Single Sign On Users will get forced logged out from Brightspace pulse which would normally hold their login for the 30 day tokens they are granted in Pulse. We want to just lock the…
Brightspace events?
Hi. I'm quite new to BS development. I'm faced with the following issue. I need to get all enrollment changes in BS groups. The thing is that there are a lot of groups and I don't want to get the group info of all groups, and then check if there are changes. I think that would take to much time, but also be to big a load…
