Symptom
After updating the Agenda such as the start and end time of a Class with Zoom VLS, the new notification that has the new meeting room has a different URL which requires authentication.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Learning 1H 2021
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a Class
- Associate the instructor with Zoom during class creation
- Enroll a user
- Receive initial notification which has a "longer" URL that does not require authentication to get into Zoom
- Go back to the Class Agenda and update the end time and apply changes
- The VLE_EVENT_UPDATE_STUDENTS notification that is sent to the registered user has a shorter URL which requires authentication
- The advanced VLS setting for Authentication Required is never set to true
- The instructor also received a new notification that also has a shorter URL
Resolution
This issue is resolved via a code change in 2H 2021 release which cannot be patched.
Possible workarounds:
- If the Agenda has to be updated, send a follow up ad-hoc notification that includes the previous URL. The URL will need to be pulled from a previous notification that the Instructor or User received.
- Do not update the Agenda but send an ad-hoc notification informing users of the change.
- Create a new Class and manually enroll the users into the new one. Make sure to remove the "invalid" Class from the Library so other users cannot enroll.
