As part of our continued effort to provide more granular levels of control for administrators looking to manage the PDF remediation experience for Instructors, a new feature flag is available in the Ally Configuration options that allows the Library Reference workflow to be turned off.

Administrators can now turn off the Library Reference feature to remove the instructor's ability to add Library References to PDFs when the original file is unavailable while working through various PDF-specific issues.  This additional layer of control will help align this feature with institutional preferences and processes and provides additional flexibility when determining how best to manage fixing PDFs at scale.

Administrators can find this new feature flag within the Features tab in the Ally Configuration tool listed under Library reference.

As part of our ongoing commitment to instructor efficiency and clarity in reporting, the Ally reports will no longer consider UNSAFE_HTML files as part of the course content for Blackboard integrations.

As of this release, UNSAFE_HTML files automatically created in the content folder when using HTML snippets inside a Blackboard Document will be filtered out of the Institutional and Course reports.  Previously, these files would show in the report but instructors were not able to fix the identified issues for missing language and title and often turned to other workarounds to remove these files from the course to remove them from the reports.

As part of a future release, we will look to avoid processing these files entirely when onboarding a course to help improve general performance and scanning.

Instruktører som fikser PDF-filer med manglende språk i Ally Instructor Feedback Quick Fix, kan nå dra nytte av at språket oppdages og forhåndsvelges i rullegardinmenyen, slik at de unngår ekstra skrolling og sparer tid når de fikser dette vanlige problemet.

Allys innebygde språkgjenkjenning analyserer PDF-filen for å finne riktig språk der det er mulig. Hvis det ikke blir oppdaget noe språk, kan læreren likevel velge et språk manuelt for å bruke utbedringen og få Ally til å lagre endringen i PDF-filen som forventet.
