User Email List

[Carter41]

I am our institution's Canvas admin and I am trying to figure out how to have student email addresses be displayed in the class list for an instructor in one particular class.

I found this permission that we already have enabled called "Users - view primary email address." Under "What it does" it states, "Allows user to search for other users via primary email addresses in the People page." I tested it and that works. You can indeed search for a student by their email address but only if you know what that email address is! It doesn't actually display the email address on the class list.

If I act as the instructor, I only see the following in the class list:

Name

SIS ID

Section

Role

Last Activity

Total Activity

@Carter41 Although the People tool does not list email addresses, teachers can export a course roster CSV that includes email addresses from the (currently optional, but mandatory as of 7/20) New Analytics tool. How do I view and download reports in New Analytics?

Thank you for letting me know this workaround for the time being. Hopefully there is a way to have the email address appear in the class list without the need for running a report. We also don't have Analytics or New Analytics in the navigation menu by design.
