Question about New v10.0 plan
I have read the blog and looked at the notes related to 9.16/10.0 (20.25.04) and 10.4 (20.25.08) and after updating my notes on the upcoming changes I noticed that the following datasets that had been mentioned earlier as part of 10.x were neither included ( new notes) or excluded (the blog change log).

Spice vs Direct
In Analytics Builder, what is the difference between a SPICE and DIRECT query? Are there cases where one is better than the other?
Group assignments - Identifying non-submitters
Hi, We're just looking into building an Insights/Domo report to identify students that have not submitted assignments. We use Release Conditions and Special Access so in order to work out who hasn't submitted we need to know who is eligible to submit, so this is not necessarily every student on the Class List. We can work…
Outcomes Aligned to Tool Objects no longer including all outcomes?

I'm trying to figure out a way I can create a report that shows students who have never logged in to their online classes after the first five school days of a new semester. Often these students fall between the cracks because of tech…
Exam Reports
Hey everyone! I am very new to D2L and our previous administrator recently left so I am trying to fill in. Our organization would like to create reports to see which of the exams in our programs are the most to least failed over a period of the last few years. With my limited understanding I am not able to find a way to…
Can't import collections into postman
Hi all - I'm trying to go through the "Learning Postman using Brightspace" course and am unable to import any of the github collections into postman. I'm downloading the .json files and keep getting an invalid file error every time. I am new to all of this so I need the sample files in order to get through this tutorial. I…
Outcome data help
Could someone get me start as to what data sets would be put together to get the data from Learning outcomes? I have been trying to figure it out, but I am just getting frustrated with it. I am new to this and could use the help. Thanks.
