Steps to Repeat:
- Log into Blackboard Learn as Instructor
- Create a course (use 'Original' view if on Saas with Ultra option)
- Create an assignment and enable the SafeAssign Plagiarism check option
- Enroll two students
- Log into Blackboard Learn via a desktop as the first student user
- Submit the assignment (text or file content)
- Log into the Blackboard app as the second student user
- Submit the assignment (text of file content)
- As Instructor, view the two students' attempts in a web browser
Expected Behavior:
The SafeAssign Originality Report is visible for both submissions.
Observed Behavior:
There is no SafeAssign Originality Report for the Blackboard app submission.
Symptoms:
When an assignment attempt is submitted from the Blackboard app to a Learn 'Original view' assignment with the SafeAssign Plagiarism check enabled, the SafeAssign Originality Report is not displayed.
This affects both text and file submissions from the Blackboard app. This issue affects Learn's 'Original' view on both enterprise and SaaS instances, but it does not affect the Learn Ultra view.
Resolution/Workaround:
Fixed in Learn SaaS 3700.11.0
The fix will be included in future Cumulative Updates for Learn 9.1
Target Release:
Future Reference
Patch Available:
