Re: Content Retention Feedback Requested!
Is there going to be a change so that videos can be tagged to be excluded from any Archive policy?
Thanks
Re: Content Retention Feedback Requested!
I'm a little late coming to this, but just looking at my latest retention email and most of the list for deletions are Meeting recordings from Zoom, which normally wouldn't be an issue, other than that they are all from Fall 2021, during the pandemic, when faculty were using Zoom for courses. I'm concerned that they will expect this content to be there as some have pulled back old Zoom sessions for guest recordings created at that time or pull up a video to replace a current semester video. It still looks like content creators are not notified that videos will be deleted. Is this something that will be added in at some point as an option?
caption
Is it possible to make the first row shorter or the same length as the lower row. This is an accessibility recommendation. It is more user-friendly.
Re: Auto Cross-post videos to 2 (or more?) different Folders.
The reference copy folder would not be automatically created, the user would create it in the course folder. Now any videos you add to the reference copy folder are automatically added to the other linked reference copy folders in other course sections. You still have the ability to have separate content for each course since it could be added to the root or any other folder inside of the course folder.
Re: Issue Retrieving More Than 50 Videos & Recursive Subfolder Enumeration via REST API
Use the pageNumber parameter, and it will work. Like it says in the docs:
To fetch all elements, this endpoint can be called multiple times, starting at pageNumber = 0 and incrementing the page number until no results are returned.
It works for me with the folders/{id}/sessions endpoint, and I' sure the one for folders (children) works the same way.
Re: GetGroupAccessDetails - reference copies - potental bug?
I agree with Charles, a reference copy is a video regardless so if permissions are granted to the group they should be reported back. If this could be investigated and updated it would be appreciated.
Re: GetGroupAccessDetails - reference copies - potental bug?
That should absolutely change. Just because it's a reference copy doesn't make the permissions less relevant.
Canvas LTI 1.3 Bugs
I have actually submitted this to support last fall when we discovered problems after upgrading to 1.3. No updates from support so posting here for more attention. Two big issues:
- Cannot disable the grade by % viewed option. We did not want to enable this feature because of the 3-hour delay of grade syncing. There's an option for support which says "allow grade by % viewed", so left this unchecked. However, it turned out that disabling this option also stopped the grad sync for quiz grades. Support acknowledged this was a bug but provided no solution or eta. We had no choice but enabling the % option so our quizzes can be synced.
- Assignment title overwritten. With 1.3 in Canvas, after you choose a video to embed as an assignment, the title of the assignment would be overwritten by the video title, and you'd have to manually change it back to the actual title you want.
LMS integration is crucial so we hope the tech team can treat these issues with a higher priority.
Get Reports
How am I supposed to use the Reports endpoint and get a report by 'id' if there is no endpoint to give me the report ids?
Re: Bulk Scheduling Changes Feature Request (Remote Recorders)
@Elaine Mello The deletions happen automatically. The automated workflow is roughly:
- Has the class schedule changed? If so, delete all of the scheduled recordings and mark it as not scheduled.
- Is the class scheduled? If not, schedule all of the class recordings. If we've previously emailed the instructor, email them to let them know we automatically rescheduled the class based on a change.
