D2L Brightspace
Add D2L Brightspace to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed a D2L Brightspace integration so your customers can work their own courses, enrolments, assignments, and grades from inside your product, with governed agent access to the same records. Learner data is sensitive, so access is scoped per tenant, limited to the fields you map, and every read and write is logged. fastn handles each customer's authorisation and API upkeep, so onboarding another institution or instance is configuration rather than a release.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers read their own Brightspace courses and enrolments into your product, mapped to their own records.
Read assignments, submissions, and grades so progress shows up where learners and staff already work.
Create or update an enrolment from your product so adding a learner does not need manual re-entry.
Trigger your product when a submission is graded or an enrolment changes.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent summarises a learner's outstanding assignments before a check-in.
An agent enrols a learner or updates a record within governed permissions, with the action audited.
An agent reacts to a completed course and runs the next step in a learning path.
Example prompt
List learners in this course with an unsubmitted assignment past its due date.
Set up D2L Brightspace in 4 steps
- 01Open the D2L Brightspace connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authenticate their own Brightspace instance.
- 03Map the course, enrolment, and grade fields your product uses, then enable actions and triggers.
- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the D2L Brightspace integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a D2L Brightspace integration without building it. Your customers connect their own D2L Brightspace account inside your product and work their learners, training records and credentials there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: completion records get used as compliance evidence, so they have to be accurate and attributable. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so a D2L Brightspace update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed D2L Brightspace connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you keep training records current without chasing spreadsheets without wiring it twice.

DocusignD2L Brightspace integration FAQ
How do I add a D2L Brightspace integration to my product?
Enable the D2L Brightspace connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own D2L Brightspace account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no D2L Brightspace client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own D2L Brightspace account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own D2L Brightspace account and only ever sees their own learners, training records and credentials. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this D2L Brightspace integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent summarises a learner's outstanding assignments before a check-in.
Who maintains the D2L Brightspace integration?
fastn does. When D2L Brightspace changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Can my product enrol a learner or award a credential in D2L Brightspace automatically?
Yes. An event in your product can enrol someone, assign a course, add them to a training path, or issue a credential in the customer's own D2L Brightspace account, so training and recognition follow what actually happened rather than a manual upload.
Can I read completion and credential records back out of D2L Brightspace?
Yes, scoped per tenant and audited. Completions and issued credentials are frequently used as compliance evidence, so the read is logged and attributable rather than a bulk export nobody can trace.
What can I build with the D2L Brightspace integration?
A common starting point: read their own Brightspace courses and enrolments into your product, mapped to their own records. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the D2L Brightspace integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding D2L Brightspace does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
