Release Notes: 2020 June 20 (Azolla)

Basic Learning Plans

We've added the ability to create basic learning plans. Basic learning plans are useful when you want to quickly assign courses and actions to users. 

If your needs change and you find that you need to specify different expiration dates, mandate levels, or other advanced settings, you can convert a basic learning plan to an advanced learning plan. 

Improved Requirement Block Display

We've updated how requirement blocks are displayed in the Learning Plans Dashboard. These improvements make it easier to view what courses and/or actions are included in a requirement block. 

Third-Party Library Updates

We updated several third-party libraries used by SmarterU. These updates may result in a minor refresh of the interface and performance improvements.

System-Wide Updates

Bug Fixes

• We fixed an issue where the Rainforest theme was causing a "Not Secure Browser" warning.

Learner Interface

Bug Fixes

• We fixed an issue that prevented the Learner Dashboard from loading in French.

Account Administration

Bug Fixes

• We fixed an issue that caused an error when users logged out from an SSL session.

API

Enhancements

• We've updated the listSessions method to include the session's start and end dates — converted to the API user's timezone — in the response. The new tags in the response are startDateConverted and endDateConverted.

Course Administration

Enhancements

• We updated the message that displays when a CDN-hosted video is uploaded to mention the email that will be sent after the process is complete.

Knowledge Base

Enhancements

• We've added Captivate (i.e., CP and CPTX) as acceptable types for knowledge base files.

Learning Plans

Enhancements

• We changed the dropdowns to select a certification, requirement, course, or action in the Learning Plans Dashboard from lists to grids.

• We've made some updates to learning plans to improve the performance of the Learning Plan Report, recommended enrollments, and the Certifications Dashboard.

Mobile App

Bug Fixes

• We fixed an issue that prevented SmarterU-hosted videos from playing in the app.
