Hi All,
Is anyone else having trouble accessing the drop-down menus on the Canvas Live API site?
Whenever I try to expand one of the rows, I just get no response from the page.
Hi @wguida,
I have seen some chatter on this issue on a different chat platform, and one of my colleagues from UMich, Matt Jones, posted a temporary workaround there. I'll paste it here:
---
Local override method:
this.isCollection = this.dataType && (this.dataType.toLowerCase() === 'array' || this.dataType.toLowerCase() === 'list' || this.dataType.toLowerCase() === 'set');
to
this.isCollection = Array.isArray(this.dataType) ? true : this.dataType && ['array', 'list', 'set'].includes(this.dataType.toLowerCase());
Refresh.
Someone else there was informed by Canvas support that an official fix is scheduled to go to production on Feb 26.
I hope this info helps!

How do I upload a student's assignment submission to a Canvas assignment when it was sent to me via email?

When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
