When creating a Google LTI assignment --
When you limit the number of assignment attempts, are submission attempts actually limited when using a third party application like Google LTI or is it just for Canvas assignments?
Hi @MsZ1,
While it may not be universally true, the way I've seen the external tools we have for assignments behave is that the external tool will work and will let the student go through whatever their motions for a submission are, and it will generally appear to work, but the canvas side will not accept the submission/score transfer from the tool once the submission limit has been hit. From the tech side, I understand exactly why the workflow is what it is, but it can be confusing for students because they don't really get locked out of making more submissions. There are a few LTI tools that have their own submission limiting system too, which will usually work better but is setup in the tool itself. My general advice to our faculty is to allow unlimited submissions on the canvas side when using an external tool assignment.
Hope this helps a bit!

My faculty want to use Canvas to evaluate clinical skills for our veterinary technology program. Key Points Each skill is a separate assignment Each assignment provides students with 3 attempts to pass Each assignment has a unique rubric and an outcome of pass/fail for the skill We want to preserve the grading history for…
Hi! I've seen this question asked over the years and have never seen an answer to it beyond "have students follow the video guide." Every quarter I have a couple of students who can't access the peer papers they've been assigned to review. I can see that they've been assigned papers to review, and so can Canvas support. A…
Hi, Has anyone pursued establishing an on-site/on-campus backup of their Canvas instance (updated and ultimately similarly functional to the Beta or Test instances provided when Instructure hosts your LMS in AWS)?
My team is currently going through the different LTIs/APIs we have installed in our Canvas instance and making sure we have a full list of what permissions each one has, what information it gives/receives, etc. However, the list of LTIs/APIs is contradictory - the new Apps page has a Monitor tab which lists launches of…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? 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…
