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".

It seems that it's all within the Canvas interface at this time.
You could suggest this as a new feature to add to Canvas, though. Just know that the entire idea process is on hold at the moment because the Community site is undergoing some changes. You can read more about that at these links:
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!!!

I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
