Could you please clarify about the URL structure for the new Canvas Portfolio feature after the retirement of the ePortfolios on June 30, 2026?
Clarification on URL Structure for the New Canvas Portfolio Feature After ePortfolio Retirement
With the retirement of the legacy Canvas ePortfolios scheduled for June 30, 2026, I would like to clarify how the URL structure works for the new Canvas Portfolio feature.
Previously, ePortfolio links followed a structure such as:
https://[institution].instructure.com/eportfolios/[portfolio_id]
Could anyone confirm what the new URL structure looks like for the new Canvas Portfolio feature?
For example: Are the new portfolio URLs tied directly to the user account (e.g., /users/[user_id]/portfolios/...)?
Are portfolio links stable and accessible for multiple educators involved in evaluation?
Will existing shared links remain accessible after migration, or will entirely new links be generated?
Are there recommended best practices for sharing portfolio URLs for multi-educator assessment workflows?
This clarification would be very helpful for institutions like ours that are preparing for the transition and designing scalable evaluation workflows involving multiple educators.
Thank you in advance for your insights and experience.
Hi @JishuChakma, Thanks for posting in the Community! Canvas Portfolios is a built-in feature of the Canvas LMS, so there is no need to visit a different URL or manage a separate login. If enabled by your institution, you can access Portfolios directly from your User Navigation menu.

When you are creating a quiz and/or also reviewing a quiz in Canvas after the class has taken it, the questions aren't numbered so after you get past the first few questions, there is no way to even tell what number you are on. Can someone change that?
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
