Does anyone know how to find the student email address to which Canvas sends invites? We just had a problem with a student not receiving their Canvas invite, and we wanted to double-check the email address, Canvas sent it to, but we can't find it.
By canvas invite do you mean an invite to a course? If the user is already in Canvas you can search for the user using the people tab, click on the user in the results, and look at email(s) that show up under login information.
If you're talking about adding a new user to your canvas instance (so that the user can then be invited to or enrolled in courses) the Add button, in the user interface an email is entered - I would check the source of that email and compare it to the invitee's known email. If enrollment was via css upload or API again an email would have been entered.
At the least yo9u could try inviting the person again
Hi @LynzWilmsey,
If the Canvas user account has notifications enabled, as an LMS administrator, you should be able to go to "Admin Tools > View Notifications" and review the notifications that they received. For each notification that appears in the results, the "To" field will show where the notification was sent. In my experience, for the "To" field, the individual notification will say either "push" (to a mobile device, through the Canvas app) or display their email address (whether the email address provided by the institution or one provided by the user).

I am having an issue where my gradebook will not sort the assignments in date order. It seems to only impact discussion board assignments, but I cannot see a rationale for why they will not group themselves with their counterparts. The only factor that is new is that I am using the new feature where I can set a different…
Hi everyone, Is there anyway I can download all discussion posts, similar to downloading assignments? Thank you. Zehra
Could there be a feature added (or maybe there is something out there already) to limit not just the file EXTENSION but the file NAME as well? For example, instead of just requiring "XLSX" extension for JoeSmith-Assignment1.XLSX, we could require "*Assignment1.XLSX" for the filename. This would ensure that students submit…
Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
