In Permissions, Separate "Manage (add/edit/delete) course files" into 3 permissions

Please change each the "Manage (add / edit / delete) course files" from a single setting to three separate settings.

 

Current:

Manage (add / edit / delete) course files

 

Should become:

  • Add course files
  • Edit course files
  • Delete course files

One reason for this request:

This would allow you to set TAs (or other roles) to having only the permissions needed for that role instead of none of them or all of them. For example, the ability to add and edit course files but not delete them.

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

For more information, please read through the Canvas Release Notes (2021-03-20)
