Overview
This article includes steps for an LMS Administrator to upgrade the Aviso Moodle Plugin in their Moodle environment for LMS integration with SS&E.
- For new implementations, follow the SS&E LMS Integration: Moodle Plugin Installation Guide.
- The following update will enable all LMS Data Synchronization with SS&E, including the assignment data sync.
Moodle Versions
Moodle Versions 3.x and 4.x are supported in the SS&E Moodle Integration.
- Institutions with Moodle 4.x must have the new Moodle Plugin (version 2023062701 or later). This must be installed to sync any Moodle 4 data with SS&E, including assignment data.
- Institutions with Moodle 3.x may use older Moodle Plugin versions, but may choose to upgrade to the new Moodle Plugin (version 2023062701 or later) to enable assignment data to sync with SS&E.
Moodle Vendors
OpenLMS
- OpenLMS clients will automatically receive Aviso Moodle plugin updates.
- If you are using OpenLMS there are no additional steps to update to the latest plugin version.
Learning Pool and Other Vendors
In some cases it may be necessary to contact your Moodle Vendor's Support Team to request that they complete the SS&E/Aviso plugin installation steps for you. The SS&E/Aviso user created for the integration should then be given access to the plugin to complete this setup.
Upgrading the Moodle Plugin in an Existing System
To install the updated Moodle Plugin:
- Follow the steps in SS&E LMS Integration: Moodle Plugin Installation Guide, specifically the "Install the Plugin" section. This will replace the existing plugin, upgrading it to the new plugin version.
- Verify the rest of the settings and configurations in the Moodle Plugin Installation Guide are accurate and complete.
- Once you have updated the plugin in Moodle and tested the connection in SS&E, please submit a request to let the Watermark Support team know that the Moodle Plugin has been updated on your LMS system, and whether or not you would like to begin syncing assignment data.
-
- Watermark Technical Services will update the moodlePluginVersion to 1.0.0 in SS&E Application Administration.
- Watermark Technical Services will enable the assignment sync if requested.
