MUMIE Ilias integration for teachers
This article is meant for teachers and instructors, who would like to use content from MUMIE courses (e.g. OMB+) in their own ILIAS course.
Please note, that the MUMIE integration only works, if the necessary plugins have been installed. In case they are missing, please get in touch with your ILIAS administrator. You can get the plugins' latest version from github or by contacting us via email.

Managing Availability
MUMIE Tasks provide the option to restrict the availability and visibility of the task to normal users (users with only reading permission e.g. students / course members / etc).

Just open the MUMIE Task and go to Settings and select the Availability sub-tab. |

You can additionally select a Limited Availability Period. Outside of this period users will not be able to access the MUMIE Task and only grades that were achieved within the selected time frame will be be taken into account for grade synchronization. |

|
Warning: Please only use this from to change the Limited Availability Period. Otherwise some grades might not be properly synchronized.
If you have changed this option somewhere else by accident, you need to trigger a forced grade update. You can do this by either changing the Limited Availability Period form the MUMIE Task settings or clicking on the Force update button in the grade settings. |

Important notice
Currently, grades for the MUMIE Tasks are only updated when their individual Learning Progress is viewed or a course containing them is opened. This means that we cannot guarantee that all grades are up-to-date, when they are accessed by other means than the one described above.
