Customizing Account Notifications

On the Notification Settings page, you can manage notification settings for your Canvas account and/or manage notification settings for individual courses using the Settings for dropdown menu.

Each notification has a default delivery frequency preference. To view the current notification delivery frequency for a notification type and contact method, hover over the notification icon.

 Notification settings apply to all of your courses unless you set the notifications settings for individual courses.

If you've enabled a notification setting for an email address that is outside your institution, you may see a privacy warning. You can close the warning by clicking the OK button. Once the warning has been displayed, it will not display again.

If you have enabled push notifications in the Canvas Teacher app, you can manage your settings in the Push Notification column. Please be aware that push notifications can only be sent to your mobile device right away or not at all. Daily and weekly notification options are not supported.  

Additionally, settings inside the app will override settings set in the notifications page.
