<h2 data-id="brightspace-aws-brightspace-now-has-data-center-residency-in-india-new">Brightspace AWS – Brightspace now has data center residency in India | New</h2>
<p>To support the sale of Brightspace in emerging markets and the data residency requirements for those markets, Brightspace AWS hosting is expanding into India using AWS- Asia Pacific South-1 (Mumbai). Previously, AWS hosting was only available for that region in Asia Pacific -Southeast -1 (Singapore) and Asia Pacific Southeast 2 (Australia). There is also a new Brightspace Core variation with the following exclusions: </p>
<ul><li>Bongo (Video Assignments and Virtual Classroom) is not being deployed or sold in the new Mumbai region</li>
<li>Initial deployment will not include Discover, Learning Path, Manager Dashboard, Learning Groups, and User Attributes. It is expected that these will be deployed in a subsequent version in 2023. </li>

</ul><h3 data-id="technical-details-1"><b>Technical Details</b><br></h3>

<h2 data-id="brightspace-editor-equations-render-consistently-for-all-users-updated">Brightspace Editor – Equations render consistently for all users | Updated</h2>
<p>To improve consistency in Brightspace Editor, this release updates the Editor so that it renders all equations during editing or creation in the same MathJax format as when published. This helps with correct formatting and spacing of equations, which makes it easier to review work prior to publishing.</p>
<p>Previously there were layout and styling differences during creation and editing; the former used WIRIS format rendering and the latter MathJax. </p>
<p><b>Note:</b> There are no changes to the <b>Equation Editor</b> used to create an equation to insert into the editor.</p>

<h2 data-id="creator-content-styler-add-more-color-with-the-updated-color-selector-updated">Creator+ Content Styler – Add more color with the updated color selector | Updated</h2>
<p>This feature changes the color options available to the user in the Content Styler menu and adds custom, optional HTML <b>Title</b> attributes to the other color selectors. The <b>Accent</b> and <b>Accessible Accent</b> color selectors now use more standard color selectors found in other areas of Brightspace. The selectors now have their <b>Title</b> attribute set relevant to the color property they control and have improved alternative tiles that are more descriptive.</p>
<p>Previously, the selector icon was misleading when choosing accent colors. The title attributes were not descriptive enough for a screenreader user to know what color they were controlling.</p>

<h2 data-id="data-hub-brightspace-data-sets-major-version-8-new">Data Hub – Brightspace Data Sets Major Version 8 | New</h2>
<p>Brightspace Data Sets (BDS) Major Version 8 is now released. Version 7 will continue to exist in parallel for 6 months (January 2023 to June 2023) to give users time to accommodate the changes before migrating. All clients will be automatically migrated to BDS version 8 in July 2023.</p>
<p>Included in the upgrade to Major Version 8 are disruptive changes to existing Brightspace Data Sets:</p>
<ul><li><b>Grade Objects</b> BDS: remove <b>CategoryName</b> column. (Please note, you can still find the category name by using the ParentGradeObjectId column and the Name column.)</li>
<li><b>Quiz Objects</b> BDS: remove <b>DisableRightClick</b> column.</li>

</ul><p><b>Availability:</b><br></p>

</ul><p><b>To enable:</b><br></p>
<ul><li>Ensure the <b>Can Access Brightspace Data Sets</b> permission is granted to administrators at the org level.

</ul><p> </p>
<h2 data-id="data-hub-lti-link-migration-audit-brightspace-data-set-new">Data Hub – LTI Link Migration Audit Brightspace Data Set | New</h2>
<p>This release adds the new <b>LTI Link Migration Audit</b> Brightspace Data Set (BDS) to provide administrators with an audit log of all attempted LTI link migrations.</p>
<p>Each row in the data set represents an attempted link migration from LTI 1.1 (legacy) to LTI 1.3 (advantage). Having access to this data helps administrators to understand their migration process and make any changes necessary to complete the migration from 1.1 to 1.3.</p>
<p>Previously, administrators could only see if their migrations were successful by checking the Migration Log under <b>External Learning Tools</b>, and there was no information older than 90 days.</p>
<p>The <b>LTI Link Migration Audit</b> BDS only captures migration attempts from January 2023 onwards and does not contain historical information.</p>

<h2 data-id="discover-approve-or-decline-course-self-enrollment-requests-new">Discover – Approve or decline course self-enrollment requests | New</h2>
<p>This release allows you to accept or decline learner self-enrollment requests. All enrollment requests are managed from the <b>Manage Requests</b> page. Previously, learners could self-enroll in any course that was available in Discover, without the approval of an administrator or instructor.</p>

<h2 data-id="email-reduce-spam-in-emails-with-limitations-on-daily-emails-new">Email – Reduce spam in emails with limitations on daily emails | New</h2>
<p>This feature introduces the ability to prevent users sending out an unlimited number of emails – and thus reduce the amount of spam emails – by implementing a daily limit of email recipients. Administrators determine which roles have a restriction by assigning the <b>Send Limited Daily Emails</b> permission. The daily limit is set by the <b>d2l.Tools.Mail.DailyRecipientSendLimit</b> configuration variable, which has a default value of 100 daily recipients and a maximum of 5000.</p>
<p>Once a user reaches the daily recipient limit, they receive a notice in the Email tool and the <b>Send</b> button becomes invisible. This notice states "You have reached your daily recipient limit and can no longer send emails." Users can continue to save emails as drafts.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> A user's day is calculated based off the user's time zone, from 12:00:00 through to 11:59:59.</p>
<p>Administrators can also configure which institution email or emails receive alerts from Brightspace about roles going over the daily limits with the <b>d2l.Tools.Mail.DailyRecipientLimitNotifications</b> configuration variable.</p>
<h3 data-id="technical-details-7"><b>Technical Details</b><br></h3>

<h2 data-id="rubrics-discard-incomplete-evaluations-updated">Rubrics – Discard incomplete evaluations | Updated</h2>
<p>The Rubric evaluation workflow provides an autosave feature to streamline the evaluation process; however, if an instructor exited the partial evaluation, the automatically saved parts of the assessment were committed to the rubric and visible to the learner. To provide a better experience in Consistent Evaluation (inline and pop-out views), the instructor has the option to Publish the current evaluation, or to Save as Draft. If the instructor chooses to Save as Draft, the working copy of an evaluation is saved to a temporary file until the instructor clicks <b>Publish</b>, and then commits the assessment to the Rubric. If an instructor clicks the new <b>Cancel</b> button, the working copy is deleted. If an instructor edits a previously published evaluation and then decides to cancel before updating, all the changes in the evaluation, including the rubric evaluation changes, are discarded. </p>
<p><b>Note:</b> Portfolio and Grade book pop out windows and the Rubric Create and Edit windows currently only support the auto-save functionality.</p>

<p>The <b>See Rubrics</b> permission is planned in future releases to be used for visibility features (such as the Archived Rubrics tag) which are not appropriate for Learners to view. This update aids the preparation for those usage scenarios. </p>
<p><b>Note:</b> If you remove the <b>See Rubrics</b> permission for a user, that user will not see the Rubrics tool in on the Nav bar. If you remove the <b>See Rubrics</b> permission for a user, that user will not see the Rubrics tool on the Nav bar.</p>

<p>Previously, when the icon appeared outside the expanded rubric tile, the space available to grade tasks was limited by the space used by the icon. </p>
