Is there a way for the Canvas administrator to reset ALL student passwords at once instead of going into each and every student's account? I found a past post (https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Admin-Discussion/Reset-All-Student-Passwords/m-p/118534/thread-id/4349) from 2017 and it seems like there wasn't at that point, but I am hoping there has been changes since then.
Hi @KRose13
If you used SIS imports ( https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Basics-Guide/What-are-SIS-Imports/ta-p/47 ) to create the user accounts from a CSV file, you can use a CSV file to push out updated passwords.

Hello, I’m wondering if Differentiation Tags can be configured as part of a Blueprint course. Our goal is to store differentiated content (pages, assessments, etc.) centrally within the Blueprint and have it already associated with specific Differentiation Tags (e.g. Support, Core, Extension). After the Blueprint is…
Dear Forum members, In the past, I asked students to hide some worksheets in the Excel files they would upload to Canvas. I was only interested in the results of their Excel analysis, and asked students to hide the worksheets with raw data in them. This worked until last Fall, but now SpeedGrader is rendering all…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
