We have a course on Commons and we don't know what Canvas course was shared to Commons to create it. Is there any way for us to find out the name of the original Canvas course?
Hello @clpatter ...
Yes, you should be able to see this kind of information if you are a Canvas administrator at your school. In Commons, go to the "Admin" tab at the top of the screen. Then, click on the "Stats" tab. You should see a listing of any and all content that people from your school have shared to Commons. In the table of that page, the right-most column is "Canvas Source". Clicking on the icon in that column for the course in question will take you directly to the course...assuming it hasn't been deleted from your Canvas environment. I just tested this out in my own Canvas environment, and it worked as expected. Hope this will be of help to you!

Is having students read the textbook considered an assignment or an activity if there is no grade but a required date?
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
