I know that there is a little blue bubble that identifies someone has shared content with me, but how do I set my notifications so that I get an email alerting me to it?
Hi @PatriciaDelaet ...
Unfortunately, I'm not finding anything in official Canvas documentation where you can set an e-mail notification for content that is shared with you. Just as an example, I looked at this Guide: How do I send a page to another instructor? - Instructure Community - 1079. At the bottom of this Guide, there is a section on "View Shared Content". But, there's nothing about getting e-mail notifications. Also, I looked at How do I manage content shared to me from other us... - Instructure Community - 913, and there's nothing that I can find there, either. It seems that it's all within the Canvas interface at this time.

Also, here are the links you'll need for how to create an idea here in the Community:
I hope these links will be helpful for you. Good luck!!!

Thus I cannot give…

Is there a trick to importing a rubric when using the Canvas rubric template? I download the csv file and fill in the Canvas Rubric template from the Enhanced Grading feature and nothing happens when I try to upload it. It only shows the file name, but not it's size. Yes, it is still a CSV. I've tried removing all symbols…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
