configure certificate to an activity

configure certificate to an activity

I've installed certificates but can't get the certificate to link to an activity.

Ideally what I'd like is to link the certificate to course completion, but I don't know if that's possible.

My idea is to have an assignment that is hidden from students, with activity completion enabled, and student must get a grade to complete it.  The teacher assigns a grade of "pass" to the students eligible for the certificate.

I then added a certificate, but I don't see any field to link the certificate to that particular assignment.  I see some instructions on various websites, but my certificate doesn't have the same fields listed.  I've tried as both a TF and as the admin, so I don't think it's permissions.  I'm running 2.5.

I've marked "show as complete when conditions are met" but I don't see how to say that the condition to be met is anything other than "student must view this activity to complete it."

Thanks for any help.

One more piece of information, I have course completion enabled for the course, and when I go to configure that it allows me to pick from both the hidden activity and the certificates as conditions for completion.  So that tells me I have activity completion enabled for that hidden assignment that I want to use to control the certificate.

As mentioned above, if there's a way to trigger the certificate from the course completion, that would work for me too.

Thanks

I think I found the answer.  The examples shows certificates based on conditional activities, not based on course completion.  After enabling conditional activities the "restrict access" appears.

I think it would be nice to have certificates based on course completion, not just on an activity, but I think I can configure what I want based on conditional access.
