D2L Brightspace

D2L Brightspace is an enterprise learning management system (LMS) used by higher education, K-12, and corporate organizations. Its public REST API is the Valence Learning Framework API, exposed under https://{host}/d2l/api/ and split into two product components - "lp" (Learning Platform - users, roles, enrollments, org units, data hub) and "le" (Learning Environment - content, grades, assignments/dropbox, quizzes, discussions, calendar, news, learning outcomes). Routes are versioned per component (for example lp 1.x and le 1.x) and authenticated with OAuth 2 bearer tokens issued by the D2L auth service; the older ID-Key (app-id/user-id) scheme is deprecated. D2L is the vendor; Valence is the historical name of the API framework.

D2L Brightspace publishes 13 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Assignments API, Calendar API, Content API, and 10 more. Tagged areas include LMS, Learning Management System, EdTech, Education, and Valence.

D2L Brightspace’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 9 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Education & Research regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/brightspace: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
