Load and Synchronize External Course Data

This process loads the available courses for all enabled external content providers to Oracle Learning, such as LinkedIn and Skillsoft. We recommend that you run it daily and manually as needed to force syncs.

By default, Force All External Course Data to Reload is No. This is the normal mode and shouldn't be changed to Yes unless directed to by Oracle Support.

This process:

  • Creates the necessary Learning HACP content items, course, offering, and offering activities so learners can access these external courses directly in Learning.
  • Updates all existing content, including content you haven't imported. If you manually added a branding image to an imported course managed by the external provider, the import overwrites that image.
  • End dates existing content that's no longer in the provider's catalog.

Learning transcripts also show learner progress in and completion of this content.
