Attempts table & exports

The attempts table allows you to search for, sort and filter attempts ready to view or export to CSV. Use Settings> User Access > Admins to enable the global attempts table for admins to be accessed by the main menu.

Find the attempts table for specific content on: Exams, Collections, User Groups, and Assignments

Origin and additional filters

Use the initial filter to set the origin for the attempts that you're searching for, the origin can be anywhere a user has taken the attempt : Exams, Collections, Assignments and Quizzes. Then you can select the specific content to search for.

Once the origin is set, additional filters will become available to add into your searching criteria. Note you can select multiple filters to create an OR query, the example below is searching for attempts from users in Springfield Elementary or Admins user group on the Quiz for Analytics.

Additionally use the User filter to specify one or more particular user's attempts

Once you've built your query, click the search button to see the attempts.

The attempts table works the same way no matter where you access it from, the only thing that changes is what group or content is selected.

Dates / Times

Use the time filter to set a date or a date range when an attempt was either started, completed or created. Use the date picker to select a single date and time or a range, select again and delete to clear.
