Checking a Blackboard course quota

Owned by Andrew Molloy
Last updated: Jan 16, 2025

BB Courses start out with 1GB of storage space, which may not be enough as you add content. Note that content uploaded by your students for assignments is not part of the quota.

To request a quota increase, send an email to bb@su-jsm.atlassian.net. Include the Course Name and Course ID (located above the course title).

Faculty can request their own increase for courses. Arch IT staff handle the organization requests.

Sample email:

Could you please increase the quota on the following BB org to 10gb? The faculty can no longer upload content. This is a large org.
