I'm an Admin at my univeristy and we started receiving support tickets about user not reciving email notifications even though their notification settings (global and individual course) turned on.
Has anyone else been getting similar reports?
I would suggest checking with folks on your IS team about any filter that may be blocking.
The difference is: Are the emails being sent by Canvas? If yes, why are they not being received by your district?
You can Check to see if email notifications are being sent.
I have had this with specific users here and there in the past. We have outlook and sometimes they are getting notifications to their "Other" folder instead of their "Focused" folder. Other times they may have accidentally marked a Canvas email as junk or spam, or something similar to block -- in this case they need to add instructure as Safe.
If you have MANY users reporting this -- perhaps check if Instructure has been blocked by some filter?
P.S. As an Admin you can Check to see if email notifications are being sent. See if any of these guides are helpful:
It is widespread across all the Instructure platforms we are using (Canvas, Catalog). Everything was working fine until a few days ago.
We've also just found out about a 'suppressed email' list in Admin Tools - I cannot find any detail on how or why something would be added to this list.

I am setting up my courses for this year and I realized that when I opend the mastery-based gradebook, there is no color coding. When I open last years's course that had color-coding last time I opened it in the spring, it no longer has colors. The colors appear in the individual student view, but not in the all class view.
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…
