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

Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
I have been asked to discover whether Canvas Catalog can accept eCheck payments. My thought is that since Catalog is configured to redirect to a payment form at our Payment Gateway, that this might be more a question of configuring an additional option into the Catalog and payment gateway settings. Has anyone done this?
One of the teachers has registered for Google Services in her Canvas account. However, she is unable to link the Google Assignment LTI as an external tool for assignment submissions. The error message is "account not linked" after clicking continue at this step: When I try to go into this teacher's course as an admin and…
