Can someone tell me how to use italics, bolding, underlining or create a live URL in Canvas email?
Hi @PaulEllison ,
I don't use the Inbox much, but based on responses I've seen here, I think the answer is that the Canvas Inbox is not set up for that type of formatting. It is not a true email service but rather is a simplified communications service.
Perhaps you could achieve your goal by attaching a file containing the formatting and links you would like to use:
How do I attach a file to a message as an Instructor?
How do I attach a file to a message as a student?
Hello @PaulEllison ...

Hope this helps in some way!

Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
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…
