A wish: being able to use a minus-function when inviting students for assignment in the case that it is for a class, but with the exception of for instance 2 students: For exampe: class2425_1, -Mildred, -Henry
Hello there, @ErnoMijland ...
I wasn't real sure what you were referring to when I first read through your posting. However, I'm taking an educated guess that you are asking about the "Assign To" options when editing an assignment in your course. It sounds like you would like to assign an assignment to everyone *except* certain students. Is this correct? If so, there is actually a separate area here in the Canvas Community website where you can submit your ideas that you'd like to see incorporated into Canvas. Fortunately, there has already been an idea submitted (way back in 2015) that has gotten lots of comments from Community members all around the globe. The status is currently "Open". Here's the link:

I'd encourage you to follow this idea so that you might have the chance of voting on it in the future.
Please know that the idea process is going through some changes right now, so you'll want to check out this blog posting: Turning Your Feedback into Better Prioritization a... - Instructure Community - 637959
And finally, there's a separate area to submit your ideas. (This area where you posted your question is more for asking questions about Canvas ... not as much for submitting your ideas). Here are Guides for you on how to submit a new idea (though you won't need to submit for your above idea...so as to avoid duplication of ideas):
I hope this will be of some help to you.
The Non Credit side of our institution has users self enroll in their course, they want us to run a script daily that ends any new enrollments access after 30 days. I found this end point for user enrollment end time, but in my testing, the user still had access despite their enrollment being past the end date. Do the…
My team is currently going through the different LTIs/APIs we have installed in our Canvas instance and making sure we have a full list of what permissions each one has, what information it gives/receives, etc. However, the list of LTIs/APIs is contradictory - the new Apps page has a Monitor tab which lists launches of…
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…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
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…
