I'm a contract lecturer and found the Course Roster (I think that's what it was called) useful for identifying students and some info about which Masters course they were doing. The only tab now is the "People" one, which is far less useful
Hi @JohnMackay,
It sounds to me like your school/institution had a 3rd party or custom developed tool integrated into Canvas that provided that functionality. I've been a Canvas admin for over 10 years, and I can say with confidence that the People tool is the only roster-type tool that Canvas has ever had built in. You might want to reach out to your school/institution Canvas team (usually in the eLearning / IT / Digital Education areas) to find out if they had such a tool and whether they removed it on purpose or if there's perhaos an update coming. Those of us here in the community here are other Canvas users form around the world and don't have access to your Canvas instance or your school's list of tools or anything to give specific information on something like this.
I hope the info helps a bit though! Please feel free to come back and reply if you learn anything more about this.

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…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
