Why am I getting this error message when I try to use the student view in a course I am creating?
Hi @JodyCull,
Are both the course and whatever you're trying to view inside of it (assignment/quiz/page/fileetc) published? As the view as student feature checks for all of the things a real student account would, you won't be generally able to see unpublished content (or content in an unpublished course, except maybe the home page for some reason). Also, make sure the content you're viewing is in the course, as you'd get a similar message if, for example, you have an image from another course embedded on a page. If you're the teacher of the other course, you have access to the image so it would work for you, but in student view, you only have the access to the one course you're working in, so would all of a sudden see an error.
Let us know if this info helps solve the issue or not!

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…
