I would love to see my GPA on top of my dashboard, although it may be pretty low.
Hello @Cesar-Quesdilla,
As a Canvas admin in higher-ed, I can tell you this probably won't be something added to Canvas. While Canvas may have some of your grade information, it's almost always considered to be an "unofficial" grade. Official grade info is stored in a student information system, along with additional information about a course, potentially like how many credit hours it is worth. GPA calculations have a lot of nuance to them than can very by school as well, like maximums, minimums and other things that affect calculations. Student information systems are made to handle all of these nuances and be the overall record holders, while Canvas is intended to be your virtual classroom space.
Many schools now have what they call a :portal" for students to log in to, which may pull information from various sources and display it in a convenient manner for you. If your school has a portal, that might be a place they could choose to display your GPA.
I know this may not be what you wanted to hear, but I hope the explanation helps a bit.

Am also seeing truncated asset counts ie we are seeing only the global header counts,…
I have a new React + Flask webapp. It has its own login for users to start using the app. I have added this as an external tool in Canvas. What I want initially is to see of canvas users can start using the webapp without having to login if they click on the external tool link in a canvas course. I have 2 methods…
