Hyperlink to Message from Analytics Page

[KristinL]

Within Course Analytics, we have wonderful data that shows us the activity, communication, submissions, and grades information for each student. This year, as a school, we encouraged students to use Canvas's inbox to communicate with teachers because of the features within Student Analytics. While we are thankful for the visual and documentation of communication, we'd like to add an additional feature.

When you hover over the message icon, we can see the date, and that is helpful. It would be even better (and more convenient) to be able to use the icon as a hyperlink to the message itself.

This idea will remain in the open voting forum as an idea related to Priority: Analytics 2: Teacher & Student‌

*Being a related idea does not guarantee it is slated for development, instead it indicates that the idea is related to the overall scope and is being used to inform the process.

This is so needed as a Canvas admin. I have seen messages listed in analytics that do not appear in either the student or instructors inbox when Masquerading as them.

Our Product Team reviewed some of our oldest feature proposals recently, and this thread was identified as one that they would not be able to include in their current or future plans.
