Auto-Reply for Registrations

[PatrickMcCormac]

Good Afternoon,

My university is using Canvas for an offering of continuing education courses. Is it possible to set up an auto-reply email that students would receive when they've enrolled in a course? We want to be able to notify them at that point that someone from the university will be in touch with them over the next 1-2 business days. 

Thank you very much,

Patrick

Hi there @PatrickMcCormac ,

Welcome to the Instructure Community, and thank you for reaching out!

Just to clarify -- is this message you'd like to send out going to be sent to the student's email through a provider outside of Canvas, such as as Google? Or, are you intending to use the Canvas inbox?

Hi Noah,

Thanks for your reply. I think if it's an option, it would be better for us if the message could be sent through the universities email provider, Outlook. Otherwise, we could use the Canvas inbox.
