Hi Emma,
Tbh I've never had to use Blackboard, so don't know if this will help me.
There are 320 courses, some with hundreds of video files and a 12 hour course will take me 3 days up piece together. This is why I need a faster solution.
Looking at SQL injection, Aria seems to be responsible for creating random ID numbers, so it would not be possible to inject. Also opening the web form to add a file seems difficult to control through COM. I've tried to build a Powershell script to add the variables onto the web form, but the id for each field in the form is different for each item, making it impossible for me to determine the IDs to inject data via COM.
The only other option I have is macro automation software which will simulate mouse movements, but that's not elegant.
I am surprised that there isn't an approved plugin for uploading bulk course content of the same type. I did see one bulk file uploader sent to the community some time ago, but it looks as though this was never approved, certainly is not in the catalogue.
Best regards,
Matthew
