I have a teacher reporting that she cannot grade the Turnitin LTI assignment in Canvas. She receives an error stating "The membership service has encountered some errors." Has anyone experienced this? If so, what was the issue?
Hi @StacyRoeming ...
Looks like Turnitin has had some issues the last couple of days. I replied to another posting a bit earlier with the following information:
I know that Turnitin has their own status page. In looking at that status page, it looks like they've had some significant issues in the past day or two which has caused potential issues like you are describing.
System Status (turnitin.com)
If you roll your mouse cursor over the red lines for "2 Nov 2023" for areas like Turnitin.com and Turnitin Paper Submissions, there is a link for "Service Incident 2 November". Clicking on a link like that takes you to this page:

In reading through this, my guess is that you happened to try and access Turnitin during the time they were experiencing issues. Hopefully all is well now, but you might also want to sign up for their e-mail alerts when things like this occur. Here's a link for you:

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…
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…
