We are planning to upgrade it for Moodle 5.1.

If you find any issues with it on that version of Moodle please do let us know and we might be able to increase it's priority (but in the past it has usually worked quite well when put in a newer version of Moodle)

Is there an update planned for Moodle 5.1 and subsequent versions?

The document that is being converted is uploaded into OneDrive, the converted document is then downloaded and stored in the Moodle file store, the document that was put into OneDrive is then deleted.

So it will only temporarily store the files in OneDrive (unless something goes wrong and prevents the clean up)

Does this plugin store the converted document in Moodle or does it then load the document form OneDrive?

Does the data auto clean up on OneDrive?

The plugin uses Moodle's OAuth2 service (https://docs.moodle.org/405/en/OAuth_2_services) to connect to Microsoft it will use the connected system account, which must have access to OneDrive, to do the document conversion.

Does this work with Okta or do we need to have Microsoft as the OAUTH IDP?

Hello, all. Can anyone confirm compatibility (or incompatibility) with Moodle 4.3 at this time?

Hi,

It would be interesting to apply the latest fix in the Moodle repository. Is it planned to be added to the repository?

Regards

Hi Neill, I've just updated this plugin as I've been having the "Conversion test failed: The Microsoft Graph conversion API did not send a URL to the converted document" error message (and teachers telling us the documents are not converting properly). I understood from your February 22nd comment that Tony Butler's fix was merged with the latest version (2022050600). I downloaded that version and changed version.php locally to be able to overwrite our Moodle's plugin that had the same version number (and thus avoid deinstalling and reinstalling the plugin). I'm still getting the same error message when testing the converter.

Would it be possible to confirm this repository's version contains the fix from Tony Butler and if so, change the lastest version's number so it's possible to update the plugin via Moodle's interface (Check for available updates)? Thank you! Cheers

nice one, thanks. I don't suppose you know how to force a reprocess of the failed conversions in 4.x with the adhoc tasks?

A change from Tony Butler that fixed the issue for him has been merged into the version of the plugin in the repository.

Hi, re the error mentioned above, the pull request fixes it - https://bitbucket.org/uonmoodle/moodle-fileconverter_onedrive/pull-requests/12/api-response-headers-should-be-searched - tested in our environment and it fixes the issue. cheers

Hi Neil, i've also noticed a problem today, same issue as above, with message "Conversion test failed: The Microsoft Graph conversion API did not send a URL to the converted document" when i run the test function, but i'm now also seeing heaps of this message in the mdl_file_conversion table with -1 fail indicator. Any ideas? cheers

Hi Neill, I just installed Moodle, so my version is 4.3 and this plugin does not work yet. Is there a planning to make it work...?
