One of our faculty accidentally deleted an assignment. I restored it by using the "undelete" option, but grades that had been manually assigned have disappeared. Is there a way to restore those grades?
@GuidoReverdito If the grades were entered before Saturday, you could try going into your Beta instance of Canvas, exporting the Gradebook, editing the file to only include the assignment in question, and then importing the grades back into the production instance of the course.
James, ciao and thanks for your quick response. Disgracefully enough, the story of the course in which the grades were accidentally deleted is sort of peculiar: the first six weeks there was one faculty to teach it. He was the one who graded the Oral Presentations which were one of the graded Assignments of the course. Then he suddenly left and another one took over who accidentally deleted the Oral Presentations Assignment. I restored it, but grades had disappeared. The first faculty is now not reachable, and that is why I was trying to recover the lost grades.
Have you tried checking the Grade History to see if there are records for that assignment now that it is restored? How do I view the history of all grading changes in the Gradebook?
Based on what you described, unless the Oral Presentation assignment was graded by the prior teacher this week, you could potentially see the grades on the Beta instance of your Canvas site as @james_whalley suggested. How do I access the Canvas beta environment as an instructor?
For this option to work, it is important that you check before Saturday when the Beta instance resets to match the current version of the production site.

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…
