The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
We had a vendor ask us to enable Canvas Data Services for them, for a specific event.
Even though the vendor's third-party tool would only be used in a limited number of courses, it looks like this in fact sends this specific event in *all* our courses to the vendor's endpoint.
Additionally while Data Services appears to be configurable at a sub-account level, it is not.
Is there no way to scope and restrict data services?
For reference, two useful threads on Canvas Data Services (formerly Live Events) and links to documentation.
