If someone is given account-level access in canvas, can a course instructor track the individual's access to a course?

Faculty may wish to provide access to a Canvas course to other instructors, administrators or staff to their course for a variety of reasons.
Hi @bhestiyas,
To my knowledge, there is not a built in way for someone with a teacher role in Canvas to track what someone with an admin account has accessed in their individual course. Canvas does log the activity of admins through the page views feature, but that data would generally only be available to admins and Canvas support personnel.
I hope this helps answer your question a bit!

Hi Chris,
Thank you. This is my question. Do you know where I could find documentation regarding this? ( In Canvas Help ?)

Thank you Chris for a quick response. We ( in our college) are wanting to make online class standards the same as in-person classes to satisfy the contracts.
Unscheduled class visits: when and if it happens in an in-person class it is visible by the instructor teaching in class but in an online class we do not see it because supervisors are given admin access.
I am willing to have a meeting/talk to people to get some insights on this and also how to address this issue.
Thank you again

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
We have recently encountered an issue where two students were unable to see the "Take the Quiz" button. These students were taking different exams for different courses within our Testing Center. Both exams required Respondus LockDown Browser and were restricted to specific IP addresses. In both cases, the students were…
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…
