How do I limit the use of the Attendance tool for a manually created Course role? Tutors may be able to view attendance but should not be able to edit attendance.
Hello @DSheridan
Thanks for posting this in the Canvas Community.
I was able to look at the Canvas course level permission sheet HERE. It looks like the permission for Course Content - Add / Edit / Delete allows for users to access the attendance tool. You might be able to restrict the Tutor role from the edit permission to restrict them from editing the attendance.
Hopefully this helps!

I wonder if others have had this response, but I think it is troubling messaging for students that, no matter how well they may do on an assignment, they are given a signal that anything below a perfect score should be marked/denoted with a red color, as if those grades are poor, or even lesser. I think it is harmful for…
I have a student that was in a tag called "ac" and recently moved him to a different tag, "AC." I did ensure the old tag was removed; however on a canvas PAGE he sees both pages the "ac" and "AC" Canvas Pages. I removed the assigned tags to the page and the one tag to the student thinking maybe if I remove and reassign…
