Is there any way to download audio comments made on the students gradebook?

[VeronicaC02]

I have been using the audio (no video) comment feature on Canvas to give more detailed feedback to my students, but I would like to download it in order to keep records of it. Is there any way to do this? I can't seem to find a download button, since the file is audio only.

Hi, @VeronicaC02!

I'm not aware of a way to download audio comments from SpeedGrader or the Gradebook.

If adding this functionality would be a benefit, typically the best way to suggest a change to the Instructure Product team is to submit an idea. Our Product team uses ideas shared there and other places, like focus groups, to learn users' pain points and prioritize projects.

However, in a quick search through our existing ideas, I found one that I think captures your ask: [Gradebook] Ensure audio comments in Speedgrader can be download. If that covers what you were wanting to suggest to Product, great! If you don't think that covers everything or if you have additional ideas to share, you can create a new feature idea.
