Blackboard Drive

Note - Blackboard Drive can only be used as a WebDAV client. The ability to open files from within Learn using Blackboard Drive will not work. This is a technical limitation. A solution is being investigated for May 2012.

After you have installed the Blackboard Drive application, configure as follows:

PC

1. Enter a Volume Name (i.e. BBL Prod).
2. In fields:
   • Full URL: Enter the web address as described in Finding the Blackboard Learn Course Folder Path
   • Username: Enter your PUID.
   • Password: Enter your Utility Password.
3. Select Ok.

Mac

1. Enter a Volume Name (i.e. BBL Prod).
2. In fields:
   • Full URL: Enter the web address as described in Finding the Blackboard Learn Course Folder Path
   • Username: Enter your PUID.
   • Password: Enter your Utility Password.
3. Select Connect.
4. After opening the BB Drive, from the MacOS Finder - navigate the Volume name under Shared Content and open the folder to transfer files.
