New Quizzes: Managing Shared Item Banks

[DrJdrew]

In a recent update to New Quizzes, the "shared with" information for each bank has disappeared. Now, the only way to know if a bank is shared at all seems to be to have to open the bank sharing dialog box and check.

Is there a way to be more efficient in managing how Item Banks are shared? With the ability to share to a course, things have gotten much better, but it would help to be able to see quickly if and where a bank is saved

Hello @DrJdrew,

I understand you are no longer seeing the users with whom an item bank is shared with when viewing your item banks in New Quizzes. To resolve this I would recommend reaching out to Canvas Support at Support@Instructure.com or by using the help menu in your Canvas instance as is shown in this guide: How do I get help with Canvas as an instructor? If you include a screen shot or screen recording showing exactly which locations the shared users are missing from that should allow us to assist you best!

Thanks, Joshua.

Our instructional tech reached out to Canvas support and was told, "I am not sure if/when something changed, but this guide shows that you can click the share link and share, but also see who a bank was shared with: (How do I share an item bank in New Quizzes?)

I checked the release/deploy page and I don't see any changes listed there that are related. " 

Pretty much what I had already figured out. I have a good 50+ banks that I need to manage with teachers who teach the same classes and there is no easy way to manage sharing.
