You can submit a new feature contribution through the Collaborative Roadmap space specific to each product family. The contribution feature allows users to initiate conversations about improvements or enhancements to Instructure product functionality, but they are just one of many feedback resources considered by Instructure product teams during the feature development process. Contributions are found in the Roadmap section of each product menu or from product landing pages throughout the Community. Learn more about the feature contribution process.
Note: To create a new contribution in the Instructure Community, you must be logged in to the Community. You can log in using Canvas or Mastery Connect.
