| Office 365 services complement the Moodle learning platform to provide a more productive experience for teachers and students.
| |
| | |
| == Features ==
| |
| The Office365 set of plugins provide a number of features to enhance your Moodle instance:
| |
| * '''Single sign on to Moodle using Office365 accounts'''
| |
| ** Users can sign in to Moodle using their Office365 accounts.
| |
| * '''Calendar sync from Moodle to Outlook'''
| |
| ** Users can sync site events, course events, assignment due dates, and their personal Moodle calendar to their Outlook calendar.
| |
| * '''OneDrive for Business repository'''
| |
| ** Users can access their personal OneDrive for Business documents from Moodle.
| |
| * '''SharePoint integration'''
| |
| ** You can connect your Moodle instance to a SharePoint subsite. Sites below this will be created for each course in your Moodle instance, and the document library from each course subsite is accessible through the OneDrive for Business repository. The course subsite document library is accessible by course teachers, serving as a place for teachers to share documents.
| |
| ** For more information, see [[Office365/SharePoint]]
| |
| * '''Office Mix support'''
| |
| ** Office Mixes can be embeded directly into any text and viewed within Moodle.
| |
| | |
| == Requirements ==
| |
| | |
| To use the Office365 plugins, you need the following:
| |
| | |
| * An Office 365 subscription.
| |
| * A Microsoft Azure subscription.
| |
| * Moodle version 2.7 or above.
| |
| | |
| == Plugins ==
| |
| | |
| The Office365 set of plugins contains 7 different plugins which work together. They are as follows:
| |
| | |
| * Office365 local plugin (local_office365)
| |
| ** This is a shell plugin which has dependencies on the current version of each of the other 6 plugins. Installing this plugin ensures you have the current version of each of the functional plugins installed.
| |
| * [[OpenID Connect Authentication Plugin]] (auth_oidc)
| |
| ** This plugin allows users to log in to Moodle using OpenID Connect. This also provides the connection to Office365. Users with existing Moodle accounts can switch to using this authentication plugin, and new users can log in with this plugin and have an account created for them. Users can also choose to disconnect from OpenID Connect and revert their login to a username/password.
| |
| * o365 local plugin (local_o365)
| |
| ** This plugin provides most of the Office365 integration back-end. This provides shared code to communicate with Office365, and powers the calendar sync.
| |
| * OneDrive for Business repository (repository_office365)
| |
| ** This is a repository plugin that communicates with OneDrive for Business. If the SharePoint link is configured (see [[Office365/SharePoint]]), this also provides access to shared course document libraries.
| |
| * o365 Profile Field (profilefield_o365)
| |
| ** This profile field provides status information on a user's Office365 connection and a link for users to manage their Office365-related preferences.
| |
| * OIDC Profile Field (profilefield_oidc)
| |
| ** This profile field provides status information on a user's OpenID Connect connection and a link for users to manage it.
| |
| * oEmbed Filter (filter_oembed)
| |
| ** This filter converts links to a variety of sites into oembed-powered interactions. This is used to embed [https://mix.office.com/ Office Mix] links directly into text.
| |

| When you log back in to your Moodle instance, you are presented with the all the plugin configuration options. Since you are installing the plugins as a package there are dependencies that have not yet been enabled. Save the settings without configuring them. You will come back to them later.

| | |
| == Configuration ==
