Safe Exam Browser quiz access rule
Note! since Moodle 3.9 a better SEB integration is built into the standard Moodle release. You probably don't need this plugin any more.
This quiz access rule was created by Tim Hunt at the Open University. It provides integration for Safe Exam Browser 2.0 or later with Moodle. It can be used with versions 2.7 of Moodle, or later.
If you install this plugin, there is a new option 'Allowed browser exam keys' on the quiz settings form where you can enter valid keys for version of SEB that should be allowed to attempt the quiz. There is also a new capability 'Not required to use Safe Exam Browser'. Users with that capability (by default teachers and above) are exempt from the secure browser check.
Note this plugin is not needed from Moodle 3.9 onwards any more. Its function is embedded in the default quizaccess_seb access rule. Version 'Release 1.4 for Moodle 3.4+ (20200727)' is the final release.

I am using moodle 2.6 an installed both the moodle extention and the seb itself.
the problem is that when i run the quiz i get the following message : This quiz has been configured so that students may only attempt it using the Safe Exam Browser.
You must use an approved version of Safe Exam Browser to attempt this quiz.
What do i do wrong???
Just to be clear, the documentation is here: https://github.com/moodleou/moodle-quizaccess_safeexambrowser/blob/master/internaldoc/functionality.md and you need to understand what 'Allowed browser keys' are.
David, if you want to relax the security to allow any version of SEB (or anyone who can customise their browser to pretend to be SEB) then you need to change
public static function check_access in mod/quiz/accessrule/safeexambrowser/rule.php
Change the line return self::check_keys(...); to just return true;
first, thanks so much for the plugin, SEB is a great tool. I have a Moodle 2.7 and install the SEB plugin but in the configuration of "Keys allowed" i dont find that key, you say that it's appear in one screen in SEB's installation of version 2.X, i install SEb 2.X but i don't find it and how to configurate the SEB for work with Moodle, i read the manual installation and configuration but dont understand
Can you help me for this? If you helpme I contribute with a spanish traslate for this plugin (Im from Mexico)
The exact value of the key depends on the configuration you have set. This is so that Moodle can verify that your students are using the version of SEB you created, not a version they created that lets them use Google.
how could i upload many students at once and make exam for 40 students as example and all result for their exam will save with result where ( every student have different result ). Thank you
I want to use SafeExamBrowser. In the Quiz I can check "use Safe Exam Browser". So far, so good.
But I read in the documentation:
Use the Browser Exam Key authentication in Moodle for the connecting SEB version and its settings by installing the quiz access rule plugin in Moodle. In addition you will have to copy the Browser Exam Key hash code string into the quiz settings (Administration / Quiz administration / Edit settings / Extra restrictions on attempts / Allowed browser keys).
I can not find the field where I can put in the hash code string.
What's going wrong?

There was an old SEB integration built into Moodle, available under Admin -> Development -> Experimental -> Enable Safe Exam Browser integration. That is something different, and should no longer be used.
Thanks!
It works!
Is there a workaround for this?
