University of Aberdeen

MyAberdeen — Blackboard Learn tenancy

MyAberdeen, the University's virtual learning environment, is a Blackboard Learn tenancy at abdn.blackboard.com (www.abdn.ac.uk/myaberdeen redirects to it). The Blackboard Learn public REST API is present and its unauthenticated version endpoint answers — /learn/api/public/v1/system/version returns 200 with {"learn":{"major":4000,"minor":21,"patch":0,"build":"rel.28+435d029"}} — but every data endpoint beyond it requires an OAuth2 application registered with Anthology, not with Aberdeen. Blackboard is an LTI-certified platform; that certification is Anthology's, and no Aberdeen-published LTI registration or tool configuration was found, so no LTI conformance is claimed for the institution.

x-operator: tenant
x-operator-basis: Host abdn.blackboard.com is an institution-specific subdomain on Anthology's blackboard.com
  platform. The version endpoint self-declares Blackboard Learn 4000.21.0; the contract, the OAuth2 authorization
  server and the release train are Anthology's.
x-vendor: Anthology (Blackboard Learn)
x-probe:
  baseURL_status: 400
  version_endpoint_status: 200
  note: The collection root /learn/api/public/v1 returns 400 to a bare GET because it names no resource;
    that is protocol behaviour, not an outage. The unauthenticated /system/version endpoint under it returns
    200.
