Please note that while we are publishing contest activities on Friday, October 18th; many badge assignments won't be active in the system until Monday, October 21st.  If you happen to complete a contest activity before the badge is active, that's OK. You'll still get credit for it. It just won't show up in your gameboard totals until the new badges are activated and assigned.

@thomas_jung ,

In Week 4, the following activity is given -

Monday#FFDCD3Create a Full-Stack Application with SAP Fiori UI using Joule in SAP Build Code

300

 

Whereas, in week 2 contest activities, the same activity is already posted earlier -

Tuesday#212327Create a Full-Stack Application with SAP Fiori UI using Joule in SAP Build Code300

Could you please check and do the needful?

Thanks,

Mainak

@mainak-aich  - We try to avoid that but with different people working on different topics it occasionally happens. It just means that once you complete that one tutorial you'll get double points.

@thomas_jung ,

Does it also mean that I will even get points for some activities mentioned in this week Devtoberfest but those got completed even long before Devtoberfest has started this year?

Thanks,

Step 4 question

Which property do you set when creating a policy to determine if you should check the response or request?

I checked the link (https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-blogs-by-sap/part-10-assigning-multiple-policies-to-an-api-p...) serveral times. But no clue about the answer.

The images are not loading for me as well.

Maybe a failure ? Answer in an image?

I know we have two badges that seem to be giving us issues.  If IT can't correct them by Monday, then I will just add those points to everyone's account before we do any final calculations.

@vishalakshmi For the one MAD Validation, there was a typo in the badge naming that was subsequently corrected.  But some people had it assigned before the correction and some after. Therefore I had to put both spellings in the gameboard to grant everyone who got it points for it.  But whichever spelling you don't have will show missing.  But it is in fact being counted under the spelling you actually have assigned. 

As far as Spooktoberfest, I have to ask the team member that pulled that list.
