  Any news about the version for Moodle 3.6? We need to know when this is planned so we can organise our own Moodle update strategy. OBF is one of our last major plugins to keep us waiting!

  Is there a way to limit which badges are shown in Moodle ? If the plugin is used within a large organisation, the connection between the plugin and Moodle with the OAuth key makes all the badges visible when someone wants to use a few badges in his/her course. Is any segmentation possible ?
  
  Also, is there (technical) documentation about the plugin available somewhere ? We changed some of the permissions that the plugin adds to Moodle, in order to show/hide some of the links related to OBF in the course settings for specific roles, but we had to test the permissions and guess what they were doing.

  Hi @Cédric Floquet, You can indeed filter what badges can be used in your Moodle. In OBF, from the Creator tools, on your badge - step 3 permissions - you have a specific checkbox "Visible in external tools". If ticked, your badge will be available in Moodle. We are currently rebuilding our technical documentation, including all the related permissions descriptions, the new doc will be published in the coming days. Thanks for your patience.

  Hi @Emilie Lenel. Thanks for your answer. I'm happy to hear that technical docs are on the way
  
  I hit another problem in the meantime. While the Factory part of the plugin seems to work fine (we see our OBF badges in Moodle, and we can award them in our courses depending on completion settings), the Passport part of the plugin, available in every user's Preferences page, doesn't want to connect to OBP. We tested the plugin on a dummy Moodle which was hosted on an external provider's server, and it worked. But on our self-hosted Moodle at the university, each time we try to connect a user's profile to their Passport account, we receive an email giving us a token which we have to enter on Moodle to verify the address, and when we enter it, Moodle responds "Error writing to the database". I can't find why it doesn't work on this installation of Moodle, but works on another one. Do you have any ideas ?
  
  Thanks
  Cédric

  Hi, for premium subscribers that needs to use Token (legacy api) instead of Oauth2 key and secret, make sure that you are allowing outbound connectivity from the server hosting Moodle to openbadgefactory.com, not only from from openbadgefactory.com to the server. If outbound connectivity is not enabled you will have an error trying to save the token to the field (that is only available for 10 minutes) and there's no error message or information in the documentation about this.

  @Enovation Dev Team, thank you for the feedback. The plugin uses API calls for most of the features so outbound connections to openbadgefactory.com must be allowed in general.
