A brief update.

Have now checked - you don't!
So even after anonymity has been lifted, you currently don't have any way of matching downloaded papers to students.

My understanding is that the change in filenaming convention was a Turnitin change, not an integration change, introduced as part of the maintenance window just before Christmas.
One thing I noticed today, was that if you download papers from a not-anonymous assignment, you get a manifest file included in the zip file.
Here's an example:
Your requested files are now available for bulk download in zip format.
Number of files requested:3
Number of files that were not successfully processed:0
Successfully processed and included for download "Student Last Name", "Student First Name", "Paper Title", "PaperID"
Da Vinci, Leonardo turnitin_improvements.docx.pdf 51589747 Earhart, Amelia assessment_processes.docx.pdf 51589751 Gandhi, Mahatma m25_rubrics.docx.pdf 51589755
If you download an Anonymous assignment, you don't get that manifest.
Haven't yet checked what happens on an Anonymous assignment once the post date has passed - hopefully you would then get a manifest.

Morning
Does anyone know whether the new Building Block also fixes the issue with the change in file naming when you're downloading papers? Can't see anything on the release notes but if anyone has an idea that would be great to know.
Best wishes
