Turn off and choose notifications for entire instance/all users as admin?

As the title says, we need to controll what notifications gets sent to the end user to create a better UX for end users. As well as not give more information than necessary.

How can we change the default notifications for all students and/or change per course level for all students?

Good morning, @manilpit ...

I don't know if there are any ways to do this via back-end programming.  However, I did a quick search here in the Community, and I found a couple of possible related Feature Ideas that you might want to take a look at:

• Default notification settings profiles by user rol... - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com)
• Customize default settings for notifications / hid... - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com)

Right now, all Feature Ideas are locked down until the beginning of February so that the Community team can do some re-org and clean-up of the Feature Idea process.  But, at least you can look through these two to see if they might be similar to what you're looking for in Canvas.  Normally, I would give out the following documents related to Feature Ideas:

• How do idea conversations work in the Instructure Community?
• What is the feature development process for Instructure products?
• How do I create a new idea conversation in the Instructure Community?

And finally, here's a blog post on the temporary halt on Feature Ideas:

Idea Conversations: The Path Forward

I hope this information will be helpful to you in some way.  Sing out if you have any other questions...thanks!
