The deep linking flow (aka Content Item Message) allows for the instructor to open the tool to pick or create the content to be added to course.
Adding one item at a time can often be cumbersome when building a course. This flow is to allow the picker flow to return more than one selection. In which case a simplified summary screen of the items to be added is presented, not allowing further edits.
The proposed flow is:
- Add external tool - the external tool add page is displayed
- Select the tool then Select Content
- The tool is opened up in a modal (current functionality) with the multipe=true, indicating to the tool it's ok to return more than one selection
- In the tool makes the selection
- Back on the external add page:
- If only one item is present, current functionality
- If more than one item is present, show a summary of the items to be added including the points possible for items that included a line item definition
- Save and return to course will add the activity(ies)
This ticket is related to MDL-66901 which aims to shortcut the external link page altogether (hide the plumbing to the user).
