I am using Big Blue Button for my classes. I have one student who gets the error message 401 denying her having access. She is on the school issued Chromebook and is using Chrome as her browser. Any ideas?

Thank you

I have no reply for you. But I have having huge issues with error messages with my students for all content. Canvas has no idea. Hope you find a solution.

Hi Jerrie,

I am the product manager for BigBlueButton.  While I work at Blindside Networks, the company that provides hosting for Canvas Conferences to Instructure, and can't speak on behalf of Instructure, I can respond to your question.

We had made some recent improvements to students reconnecting and they shouldn't see the 401 error again UNLESS they have been removed from the session by an instructor who checked 'Prevent this user from rejoining the session'.
