Lumi Chat is an AI-based help tool that is integrated directly into Brightspace as a pop-up window from the speech bubble button in the bottom right corner of the screen. It provides immediate access to help documentation in the same window as your Brightspace session. After typing in a question, the tool provides the most relevant documentation available in Brightspace Community.
Get acquainted with Brightspace by accessing support documentation for all your how-to questions and connect to live agents directly in the LMS. Teachers can find step-by-step guides and video tutorials on how to set up their course and its respective activities directly within the product rather than in a new browser tab or window.
Find answers on how to complete course activities and connect with live agents without having to leave Brightspace. Students can find help documentation related to their course issues without having to leave the space where the problem exists.
If you still need more assistance, you can contact a live support agent directly from Brightspace, without seeking D2L End User Support contact information elsewhere.
|
Note: Lumi Chat is only available in organizations that have subscribed to the End User Support (EUS) package. It may not be available in your organization. |
Language support
Lumi Chat is available in the following four EUS-supported languages:
- English
- French (Canadian)
- Spanish (LATAM)
- Brazilian Portuguese
A user’s chosen Language and Locale in their profile will determine the language of AI output messages, the language of the surfaced support articles, and the language of the support received for any chosen channel (phone, email, chat).
Note: If a user’s chosen Language and Locale is not one of the four languages mentioned above, the default experience will be in English.
Accessing help with Lumi Chat
Lumi Chat appears on the login page for your organization, but you must log in to Brightspace before you can access its full functionality. It is recommended to display contact information for available support resources if users experience Brightspace authentication issues.
|
Note: For organizations where users access Brightspace through another SSO system, pre-login information is still recommended in case a user navigates to the Brightspace authentication page. |
