Hello,
Hope your day is going well.
When I run the attendance report, it sends an email; however, I am unable to open the file. It says the page is not working HTTP error 500.
Any assistance is appreciated.
Attendance reports when downloaded and sent to your email have a 6 hour expiration time frame. Is it possible that you downloaded the report but attempted access post the 6 hour window?
A HTTP error 500 usually means a server disconnection of some sort. Likely due to internet connection or limited access to a particular content item. You can try clearing the cookies and cache for the browser you are using. Or try using a totally different browser altogether. Then try downloading the file and immediately open the link sent to your email.

When I ran this in my own sandbox course, I got the report sent to my e-mail almost immediately. The body of the e-mail contained a super long URL filled with numbers and letters. But, I clicked on the link, and it downloaded a *.csv file to my computer which I could open in MS Excel.
If you continue to have difficulties with this, I'd suggest contacting the Canvas Help Desk staff. How do I get help with Canvas as an instructor?
I hope this will be of help to you. Sing out if you have other questions about this.

I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
A recent change my students have been complaining about is that they now have to wait for Canvas to process submissions so that it can be displayed within the browser before they can check that the submission worked. When the servers are heavily loaded I have seen student need to wait 5 minutes for this. When submitting at…
