[ARCHIVED] Booking appointments

Can observers book an appointment through the calendar to meet teachers?

Hi  @selghazaly  Welcome to the Canvas Community. That's a good question, and it never occurred to me in the past to see if this was possible, though I suspected not.  I could not tell for certainty from the documentation, so I finally just checked myself on a test class and then logging in as an observer in the class.  (I have admin rights, so I could login as a student.)  The answer is NO.  Observers cannot book appointments via Scheduler.  In fact, even if they are observing a specific student, the Observer not see that other student's appointment, either...which somewhat surprised me.  But the bottom line is that Observers do have not Scheduler access.

I hope this helps, Sherihan.
