Transition timing

During this time between December 29, 2017 and January 15, 2018, the Crocodoc service and ability to view previously annotated documents within a browser won’t be available but the rest of Blackboard will function properly. The document viewing capabilities are the only feature affected during the transition.

Make the transition

We understand that may have come to rely on Crocodoc when they do inline grading in Blackboard. After we upgrade, the transition to the new Box View will be as seamless as possible. Crocodoc will not be available for a few minutes and then New Box View replaces Crocodoc in the affected course grading areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

While the Crocodoc service will technically reach end-of-life, the databases that contain student-submitted data and documents won’t be deleted or destroyed. Blackboard is working with Box to define a long-term strategy for the decommission of Crocodoc servers permanently.

After the EOL date for Crocodoc, what will happen to data stored in Crocodoc if a Learn instance is not updated to use the New Box View service?

While the Crocodoc service will technically reach “end of life,” the databases containing submitted student data and documents will not be deleted or destroyed – this means that the data will still be available for migrations that occur after the EOL date, as well as for critical situations such as grade challenges.

When Crocodoc is no longer available (after the EOL date or during transition), what will users see in the Learn interface if a Learn instance is not updated to use the New Box View service? Will training will be required for users?

After the EOL date and during the migration, the Crocodoc service will display a user-friendly splash page informing users of the unavailability of the service.

What will be required of clients and what is the expected workload through the transition from Crocodoc to the New Box View Service?

Blackboard is building proprietary, internal tools to assist clients in the data migration process with the goal of making the transition from Crocodoc to the New Box View service a “one click” activity to make the transition as easy as possible. These internal tools will be transparent to Learn clients and Administrators.

Will there be downtime required for the transition from Crocodoc to the New Box View service?

When the switch mentioned above is triggered, the Crocodoc service will not be available during the migration; however, the Learn instance as a whole and all other functions of the system will be available.

Does Blackboard have a recommendation to clients on when to make the transition between the Crocodoc and New Box View services?

Our guidance to customers will be to perform the transition between the two services during an off-academic period where grading and feedback are not occurring (early morning hours are acceptable); this will help eliminate possible confusion for users when interacting with the Inline Grading workflows.

When will clients have access to a version of Learn that makes the New Box View service available?

As stated in the previous article, Frequently Asked Questions: Inline Grading and the Transition from Crocodoc to the New Box View API (https://blackboard.secure.force.com/apex/btbb_articleview?id=kAC39000000XZBK), CUs for previous versions of Learn will be available in the same timeframe as Q4 2017 which will be October.

Box has announced the Crocodoc EOL on Jan 15th 2018. Is there flexibility on this date?
