[Inbox] Add Language Translation Function

This idea has been developed and is On Canvas Beta •  How do I access the Canvas beta environment?

For more information, please read through the Canvas Release Notes (2025-01-18) 


Our district has a diverse population of language speakers and many parents don't speak English but are observers and want to communicate with their child's instructors. Without translation this forces the communication channel to be switched to another platform like Class Dojo and the like. We would like to do as much as possible on the Canvas platform including the all important communication between school and home. 

Could you please look into expanding the Canvas Translate feature to the Inbox messages. 

Respectfully,

Chris Thorpe
