Actions
What your agents can do in Moodle
10 actions. Each one is a tool your agents can call and a step your workflows can run.
Read 8
Look things up. Nothing changes.
Get site and user info
Reads the Moodle site's name and version and who the token belongs to: userid, username, fullname, the site's siteurl, and functions, the web service functions this token may call.
Search courses
Finds courses whose name, short name or summary matches the text, a page at a time, optionally only courses the connected user is enrolled in.
List a user's courses
Lists the courses one user is enrolled in (the connected user's ID comes from get_site_info).
List a course's participants
Lists the people enrolled in a course, optionally only active enrollments or one group, limit at a time from offset.
Find users
Finds users by exact email address, username, ID number or user ID (up to 50 values at once).
List assignments
Lists the assignments in one or more courses (or every course the connected user is enrolled in, when none are given).
List assignment submissions
Lists the submissions to one or more assignments, optionally only those in one status (like submitted, draft or new) or changed since a time.
Get course grades
Reads the gradebook of a course: every grade item (assignments, quizzes, the course total) with each student's grade, for one student or for all.
Write 2
Create, change or send.
Grade an assignment
Saves a student's grade on their latest attempt at an assignment, with an optional feedback comment (HTML) when the site's feedback comments are on.
Send a message
Sends a private Moodle message from the connected user to one or more users by user ID; Moodle notifies them by their own message settings.
A person can approve first
Any write action can be set to wait for a person's approval before it runs, so an agent asks before it changes anything.
Connection
How it connects
Connect it once in the console, then give it to the agents and workflows that need it.
Paste an API key from your Moodle account.
What you enter
- Web service token
Settings
- Moodle address
Kept safe
- Credentials are stored encrypted with your organization's own keys.
- They are opened only by the process that makes the call, at the moment it runs, and never go into a prompt or the browser.
- Calls go only to the tool's own servers.
Ideas
Ideas to start with
Starting points made only from the actions above. Mix them with any other tool your agents can use.
- 01
Ask about your Moodle data
Ask a question in plain words. The agent can get site and user info, search courses or list a user's courses in Moodle, then answers with what it found.
- 02
Let an agent update Moodle
Have the agent grade an assignment or send a message in Moodle as part of a larger task. Turn on approval and a person signs off on each change first.
- 03
Share what it finds in Slack
Give one agent Moodle and Slack: it can get site and user info in Moodle and post a summary to a Slack channel in the same run.
