New Assignment Date Resource for Alerts

Use the new learningRecordsCurrent API to notify learners about their upcoming or overdue assignments. Integrate this API into resource alerts to create notifications for scenarios like assignments due in X days or overdue by X days.

The API reflects what a learner would see in their current learning, so won't ever include assignments with the these statuses:

  • Complete (ORA_ASSN_REC_COMPLETE)
  • Deleted (ORA_ASSN_REC_DELETED)
  • Withdrawn (ORA_ASSN_REC_WITHDRAWN)
  • Rejected (ORA_ASSN_REC_REQ_REJECTED)
  • Exempted (ORA_ASSN_REC_EXEMPTED)

This enhancement provides a more efficient way of delivering notifications to your learners.

Tips And Considerations

For notifications with summary-level information that doesn't include activity-level details, we strongly recommend that you switch any existing learning resource alerts that use the learnerLearningRecords resource to this new purpose-built API. For example, switch notifications based on assignment start date or due date. Because this is a purpose-built API intended specifically for resource alerts, it works better than the learnerLearningRecords resource does for the same use cases.
