Summary

In the Credentials LTI Group Setup, an Issuers tab is added. The Issuers tab allows issuers to enable or disable the use of badges from available issuers they have owner roles with in a course. Issuers with editor or owner roles can change the issuer settings and enable or disable badges. Issuers with staff only roles can view the tab details only and are unable to enable or disable badges.

Notes: This completes phase two of the Enable Users from Multiple Badges feature.

Change Benefit

This functionality streamlines the badge selection process, offering greater flexibility and scalability in course design.

Feature Workflow

Issuer Tab View
