Blackboard Learn
by Anthology
Blackboard Learn records courses, users, the memberships that enroll them, grade columns and each attempt a student makes on an assessment. Universities and schools have years of it. Kept in a Lake next to the student information system and attendance, that history shows which courses lose students, which assessments predict final grades and where early support should go.

Need more? Name any other Blackboard Learn data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.
03Credentials
Credentials you will need.
- OAuth 2.0 (client ID, client secret, refresh token)
Blackboard Learn uses OAuth 2.0 (client ID, client secret, refresh token). You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in Anthology if you need help.
04Questions
Questions you can answer.
Once Blackboard Learn data is in your Lake, ask an AI Mind in plain words or build the answer in DataPrism BI.
- Which students have not submitted an attempt in any course for two weeks?
- Which early assessments predict a failing final grade in each course?
- How do grade distributions differ across sections of the same course?
- What share of enrolled students drop a course before the midterm, by department?
05How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick Blackboard Learn.
Open Lake, pick Blackboard Learn in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the Blackboard Learn API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the Blackboard Learn documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example courses and users), whether you want a one-time load or a recurring sync, and which accounts or filters apply.
-
Your data lands in Lake.
It builds the connector, tests it and shows you sample rows. Then Blackboard Learn data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
