How do I set a forwarding address for my inbox?
Hello @RobinRiviello ...
Are you wanting to receive a copy of messages you receive via the Canvas Inbox to another e-mail address besides just your school e-mail address? For example, if your school e-mail address is currently connected to your Canvas account, do you want Canvas Inbox messages to be also sent to a personal e-mail address? If so, you can add a personal e-mail address to your Canvas user account. I'm not sure if you are an instructor or a student, but here are some Guides for you to look at:
Once you add your e-mail address to your Canvas account, you can then go to your notifications screen to determine what kinds of notifications you want to receive at that e-mail address. The things related to the Canvas Inbox are found under the heading "Conversations".

Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…

Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
