Someone changed a Canvas Theme in a subaccount, causing several CSS issues. Is there a way to determine who made the change?
Hi @RobinKouvaras,
I'm afraid that there is no log or audit trail of who made most administrative changes on the system.
I agree with @mzimmerman that there's really no audit trail in Canvas for this kind of thing. However, if you have a small number of administrators or a suspicion about who made the change, you could check the page views for each of those users to see if any of them visited the theme area ({canvas_url}/accounts/{id_number}/brand_configs) around when you suspect the change was made. There is little reason to go to that area unless a change is being made, so I suspect you'd be able to track down who did it with this method, unless you have a lot of admins and it would be too much time to search each one.

My school district has changed our required Learning Outcomes for all of our courses for this school year. How can I archive the 400+ Learning Outcomes we used last school year so they're still linked to our 25-26 courses but teachers can't use them in 26-27 courses going forward?
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…
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…
