This behavior has been resolved and deployed to the production environment as of 3/25/26.
Summary:
When trying to delete/remove a final grade Override, Canvas throws an error: There was a problem overriding the grade.
Expected Behavior:
Teachers should be able to delete/remove the final grade override from the Gradebook.
Steps to reproduce:
Prerequisites: A course with at least one assignment, one enrolled student:
- Enable the “Final Grade Override“ FF on the account level.
- Make sure that “Allow final grade override“ box is checked under Gradebook settings → Advanced
- Enter a grade for the assignment so the student has a calculated final grade available to override
- Add an override grade and notice it successfully saves as expected
- Try deleting the override grade and notice the UI error.
- The Graphql request returns a response: {"errors":[{"message":"This query is too large to execute."}]}
- The override grade doesn’t get deleted, and as soon as you refresh the page, you’ll see it.
