Known issue

I am currently using the new Turnitin interface and would like to bulk download all student submissions for a specific assignment. At the moment, clicking the Download option only yields an Excel report of submission details.

Our school is required to retain a complete copy of student submissions on our internal network for compliance and record-keeping. Could you please advise how I can access the actual submission files (PDFs or original formats) in bulk, rather than just the report?

This was a key feature in the previous system, and I hope the new interface supports an equivalent option—or that there's an alternate workflow I may have missed.

Thanks so much for raising this—you're not alone in needing bulk download capability for compliance and record-keeping. We know this is a key feature in the previous system, and I want to assure you that our team is actively working on it for the new Turnitin interface.

In the meantime, please keep an eye on our Product Roadmap where we share upcoming features and timelines. You’ll be able to see not only updates on bulk download, but also other improvements that are in the works based on educator feedback like yours.

We appreciate you taking the time to bring this need to our attention!

  Add my name to the list of users hoping for a return of the bulk download feature (as well as the PeerMark feature).

  Please also add my name to the list of users desperately waiting for the bulk download to return. Sidebar: very disappointed turnitin will no longer have the ets (grammar) feature! So far, I'm not impressed with the changes and wish we could return to last year's features!

We have discovered this is missing now that our instructors are in their grading period. We would be pleased if it was reinstated as soon as possible. We are unsure why this has not been implemented from day 1 to ensure parity with the existing software. This new version seems to have significantly fewer features than what we had.

Thank you for sharing this feedback. It’s truly what helps us improve and build what matters most to educators

Bulk Download is a highly requested feature. Our product team has prioritized it and is putting in focused work to get it released as soon as possible. We’ll be sure to update the TEN community as soon as we have more information.
