<div>HI All,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm not finding much documentation on Slots, so if it's out there, can someone point me in the right direction?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Here are some questions we are uncertain about:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(1) To create slots via csv file upload, what needs to be in the csv file? Is there a sample file somewhere?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(2) How do you connect a given resource to a given set of potential slots? We know there are the two interfaces — the slot creation interface and the resource parameter interface, but is there somewhere where you say that Exam 1 can be taken in these particular
slots and no others? Is that simply a byproduct of when Exam 1 opens and closes and the slots that are available in that timeframe? Or is there something else somewhere that helps control that?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(3) What is the function of the "secret word" ? In my testing I found that if I assigned a proctor from the course, I wasn't seeing that there was any need for the secret word. I had imagined that perhaps a blank in which to enter the secret word would
appear when a student attempted to access a resource and an onsite (or online in a case like ProctorU) proctor would type the word in for the student and the student would continue from there.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(4) In setting up the slots, there are options for "Period of Time when this slot can only be uniquely chosen" -- the meaning of this and what it does is not clear to us.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks as always!</div>
