How to Integrate Ascriptica with D2L

Ascriptica D2L integration allows you to connect to D2L to automate the registration of users into associated D2L courses. The current connection supports the following activities:

  • When a participant/registrant registers for a course in Ascriptica they are automatically registered in the associated D2L course. This saves the end user from having to do multiple registrations.
  • When a participant/registrant withdraws from a course in Ascriptica they are automatically withdrawn from the associated D2L course. This saves the end user from having to remember to withdraw in both places.
