Using the new portfolio function: Why do I get "Course assignment hidden for public share"..? The portfolio is published?
Thanks for that explanation. They got back to me right away with this information:
Our engineers are aware of this current limitation with showcase portfolios, and they are already working to release an improvement in a future update of the Portfolio tool. In the meantime, for an assignment to be shared publicly, the student needs to attach it to a Project, Extracurricular Activity, or Professional Experience. Our recommendation is to create a Project and add the course assignment as evidence within that project.
I am also curious about this. If I ask students to create a showcase portfolio for my class, it seems that sharing it via a link would be the best way to share it with me so that I could click on things within the portfolio. However, I can't click on the assignments they've added from my class. Why would a showcase portfolio be useful if the people students share the portfolio with can't access what's inside it?
We noticed this behavior as well and have reported it to the product team, but haven't gotten word of any change. This is a major blocker for our users, and is counter intuitive. Thanks for raising it here again!
Are there any updates on this issue? We have instructors who are interested in using Showcase Portfolio not Evaluation Portfolio as it seemed to be more similar to their experience with Portfolium. The fact that they cannot view student course assignments that are to be uploaded to the Portfolio as part of the assessment process is a big problem!
also would like an update on this
came to find the answer as well. A link is not useful if no one can see the evidence they share.
Is Canvas going to answer this question? My students are submitting showcase portfolios and I can't see the documents that they are uploading.
Hi @Barbara_Kehr6119,
The community forums here are mostly for peer (other Canvas users) to peer help. While there are some Instructure employees who post blogs, release notes, etc, the forums usually aren't a place to get a direct answer from Instructure. If you need a definitive answer, especially since nobody has responded to this question in a few months months, I'd suggest hat you contact Canvas support if that is an option at your school/institution.

We have enabled the automatic migration of Classic to New Quizzes. When we import QTI files, though, they always fail to load as New Quizzes. If we disabled New Quiz Migration, it works. Why does it only work for Classic Quizzes? Are there any guaranteed tools that will generate QTI files that will import correctly as New…
Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
