Product Updates

For those using My Team, this core functionality has been improved and enriched with new enhancements:

– Superadmins can now configure enrollment rules for their managers. Depending on the configuration, managers can enroll users to any course and learning plan, only to the courses and the learning plans of their domain, of the catalogs they are assigned to, of a selection of catalogs, or not having enrollment permissions at all.

– Managers can now enroll several team members to a course or a learning plan with a single mass action from the My Team page.

– Managers are not allowed to enroll users to learning plans if they are already enrolled, and to courses when they are full, before and after the course enrollment period and to the courses where only Superadmins have enrollment permissions.

– While enrolling their team members to courses and learning plans, managers can now fill out the additional fields defined for the selected courses and learning plans (if available).

– Managers will see a recap of the courses and the learning plans they chose for their team members before confirming their selection.

– A background job will be started if the number of selected users multiplied by the number of courses exceeds 100 enrollments.

– In case of errors during the enrollment procedure, managers will see a warning message at the bottom of the My Team page with a link to the enrollments log file. Upon clicking on the link, a right panel will open listing the enrollments ended with errors when enrolling several users to courses, and the courses to which it was not possible to enroll the user for single enrollments.

For those using the /learn/v1/enrollments/{course_id}/{user_id} API, please note that, starting from today, May 21, 2019, the API will no longer accept status=2 if you are calling this API using a normal user profile in the platform. Trying to call the API in this way will result in a 403 error.

For those using the POST /learn/v1/courses/{id}/rating API to manage course ratings in your platform, please note that starting today, May 21, 2019, you can no longer insert any numeric value higher than 5. From today onwards, the API will only accept number values 0-5 for course ratings.

For those participating in the Beta program of the New Course Management, we are continuously updating this area improving existing functionalities and adding new features. Starting from today:

– You can enroll multiple users to one or more courses or sessions with a single mass action, defining the same level, the same custom deadlines and the same enrollment additional fields for all the enrolled uses.

– A background job will be started if the maximum number of enrollments exceeds 20. Remember that one enrollment is a combination of a single user and single course, so selecting 3 courses and 2 users makes 6 enrollments.

For those that have created a Users-Sessions custom report, if you’ve applied the In Progress filter to show only users in progress in the selected sessions, please note that starting on June 18, 2019, you will no longer see users in the Subscribed or Waiting List status in the report unless you specifically apply those filters as well.

For those using the Go.Learn mobile app, if on the desktop version of your platform you created  some additional fields that your users must fill in to complete their profiles, your learners will have to fill in the required additional fields in the Additional Fields page, that will open after the login page on their Go.Learn mobile app. For more info, refer to this article.

For those using the POST /learn/v1/courses/{id}/rating API to manage course ratings in your platform, please note that starting on May 21, 2019, you can no longer insert any numeric value higher than 5. From May 21 onwards, the API will only accept number values 0-5 for course ratings.
