How does UDOIT handle course copies and blueprints?

Many instructors and instructional designers copy courses from semester to semester or use blueprint courses. When you copy a course or blueprint content, UDOIT automatically carries over your accessibility work and data to help you maintain progress without starting over.

UDOIT Advantage is required for this feature to work. It is not available for Essentials customers.

How does it work? 

This process happens when a course is scanned for the very first time by checking the Files area for a udoit.json file. This is true for newly created courses or copied courses. This initial scan can be initiated either at the course level through UDOIT or at the admin level through Cidiscape.

UDOIT will use this file to identify the original course using the Course ID and copy its data. This file is small (~20 bytes), only contains information pertinent to determining if a course is a copy, and will not impact your course content.
