How may an instructor access an Announcement's history?
Hello @MR8 ...
If you are an instructor, and you haven't deleted any of your announcements, you should be able to click on the "Announcements" link on the left-hand course navigation menu to access any announcements you have created in your course. If you had been teaching course in past semesters, you should be able to go to those courses (probably via your "Courses" >> "All Courses" screen) to view those past announcements.
What are Announcements?
Does this help to answer your question? Please let us know here in the Community...thanks!
@MR8 ,
In addition to the information provided to you by @Chris_Hofer , I also wanted to add on that you are able to view recently deleted announcements, as well. All you would have to do is open the courses URL, and after the course ID, add /undelete. A page should then pop up with all the recently deleted course items, and you'll be able to view the deleted announcements there as well.
I hope this helps, too!Noah
Hi @MR8,
If you are looking for the history of a specific announcement if changes were made, that is not something that exists unless:
If those three conditions have been met, the Canvas admin would need to:
Circling back, the only type of native Canvas content (that I am aware of) that allows either a teacher or an admin to see its history are pages and how to do that is documented in the How do I view the history of a page in a course? - Instructure Community - 900 guide.
Is there anything else related to announcement history that we can help you with?

Hello, I have a number of assignments that require students to complete peer reviews. Because my course is self-paced and students are progressing at different rates, I created completed sample submissions using the Test Student account so that students would always have a submission available to review. However, when I go…
Hi, I can't get this working right. I've created outcomes where the calculation method is to meet mastery twice. I've aligned them to several assignments. The grade book displays mastery as met when it's only been achieved on one of the assignments. It's not showing positive or negative for the other assignments. (I've…
Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
