tool_uploadexternalcontentresults

• Installation
• Usage

A tool to allow import of completion results for External content activities using a text delimited file.

The External content activity is available here: moodle-mod_externalcontent

The External content activity is identified by matching the COURSE_IDNUMBER in the import file against the External Content Activity Item ID Number

The import process does the following: - enrols the student into the course, if they are not already enrolled - marks the activity viewed - if USER_COMPLETED=1 and the activity is configured as Completable Externally it will be marked as Complete - if optional score is included a grade is added for the activity.

The way Moodle handles teh viewed and completion process it is the date of the import that is used, you cannot import the date of the completion from the external system.
