SafeAssign Maintenance 31 July

Posted by

On Wednesday 31 July, between 09:00 – 11:00 BST, SafeAssign will undergo a maintenance update.

Learn clients will experience impacts for up to seven hours. All submissions during this time will be queued and will be processed at the end of the maintenance period.

This downtime is essential for a backend infrastructure update, as Blackboard is transitioning to a new infrastructure.

If you have any questions about this update, please refer to the Blackboard status page or email us at digital.education@bristol.ac.uk.
