Can an instructor or other student revise, edit or delete a student's response to a discussion post?
Yes, an instructor can revise, edit, or delete a student's response to a discussion post. As an instructor, I will occasionally edit a student's response if the student has used wonky formatting or created a duplicate response.
No, another student cannot revise, edit, or delete a classmate's response to a discussion post.
If you're a student and concerned that your response has been changed in some way, I would recommend reaching out to your instructor.
I just tested this in Canvas as a teacher. I can revise my (the teacher's) posts and I can revise a student's posts.

Start taking and saving screen captures so you have proof. Complaining without proof will not help.
Ask your instructor if they edited your post.
Thank you for this reply. Yes, it is clear my posts have been edited and I have been going crazy trying to figure out what happened to them.

So, just wondering if there is a way to monitor API calls. I was able to use the DAPClient in Python to download canvas_logs in our production environment.…
As "Ideas" section is gone (at least for now), I'm posting a feature request here. Mobile app shows a list of students who have submitted or not submitted a quiz/assignment. Would be good to have this in web version as well as way to export csv.
I’m a student exploring a small personal project related to Canvas grade notifications and student experience, and I wanted to ask about what is technically and policy-wise feasible within Canvas. Many students receive email notifications like “A new grade has been posted,” but then need to log into Canvas to actually see…
To the Canvas Product Team, I am writing to request a new global or course-level setting for the Rich Content Editor (RCE). Currently, when images are uploaded or embedded, Canvas defaults to displaying the full image. For many lab-based and data-heavy courses—such as my current molecular biology lab course—we often need…
