Release Updates September 2022

• Admins are able to grant access to the same subscription item multiple times to the same learner.
• Adding a Learning Path to a folder, adds that folder name to as a content tag to the Learning Path in catalog settings.
• Able to create collections with non unique slugs which then show no content.
• Unable to update custom learner fields via the API in certain situations.
• Learner is unable to purchase a subscription if there is anything entered in the "Variation" field.
• The link in the certificate granted email for panorama learners displays a "page not found" error.
• When a learner accesses a SCORM content type that is free with registration and the "Skip the course detail page when the learner has access?" setting is on the learner is automatically granted a completion without having to complete the SCORM file.

In response to customer feedback, we've improved the learner experience for external activity assignments. External activities will now launch in a new tab so that learners can access their course content (instructions, objectives, attachments) while completing an external activity and easily navigate back to Thought Industries anytime.

If you use the Free Access with Registration setting to offer free content on your site, you will be able to limit the number of days learners have access to your content after enrolling. We will also adjust the location of the Free Access with Registration setting, so when you edit a content item you'll now find it in the Enrollment step > Ecommerce tab.

This update is planned for release on October 26th (subject to change).

We're improving the experience of learners who try to enter invalid registration or redemption codes when they are registering in your Thought Industries instance. Currently, learners who enter an invalid code are still registered in your main school, which can lead to confusion and extra administrative work to move learners to the right panorama and/or ensure they have access to the right content. When this is released, learners won't be registered when they enter an invalid code, and we're expanding the functionality of the translations available for our /redeem page so that you can enter a custom call-to-action that includes linked text.

We released fixes for the following:

• When making changes to the tag list in the catalog settings on a content item, changes will not be displayed until the page is refreshed.
• The return to learning path button will now return the learner to the learning path from within article and video content types.

We've moved the ability to enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) for managers to the Details tab of the manager profile. Each manager role must enable their own MFA by going to Account > My Account in the left navigation.

We've also split permissions to be more intuitive for manager roles. There are now two permissions related to disabling MFA for managers and learners:

For more details on enabling and disabling multi-factor authentication for managers and learners, please see this help article.

If you're using our Assignment functionality, you can now optionally specify a time when you set your assignment due date. Learners will see the time when they view the assignment page and time will be displayed in the timezone of the school unless changed under Site Settings to reflect the learner's local timezone. If you don't select a time, it will default to 11:59 PM.

We've enhanced our API functionality to make it easier for admins to manually manage learner completion records for learning paths and courses.

We added a new Learning Path External Activity API endpoint to allow you to manually set Learning Paths as complete, something that was previously not possible in TI.

Additionally, we've added a completionDate parameter to our Course External Activity API endpoint so that, when you use this endpoint to set a course as complete, you can set the completion date as well.

See our API documentation for more details.

We released fixes for the following:

• Prevent the "updated" timestamp on content from being changed when an unrelated course group is deleted.
• Using JWT SSO, the language is set to NULL if any role other than "student" is passed
