We’re excited to announce the Beta launch of our newly redesigned Catalog info page! This is your chance to explore the new features and improvements before they roll out to the production environment. Your insights will help us refine the experience. Please take a few minutes to explore the updates and share your feedback in our survey before the deadline on October 20st.
Here’s a quick overview of the new features and improvements you can expect on the revamped Catalog info page:
The Catalog info page has undergone a full transformation to deliver a more intuitive and aesthetically pleasing user experience. Whether you’re navigating through settings or checking your course offerings, everything is now more streamlined and accessible.
You now have greater flexibility over the enroll button behavior. This setting can be customized at the Subcatalog level, allowing you to decide how users enroll, with the added convenience of inheriting settings from the parent Catalog.
We’ve integrated LinkedIn Insight for enhanced tracking and analytics. This new feature allows you to add a LinkedIn Insight script (LinkedIn Partner ID) for precise tracking of user interactions on your Catalog. For more information on how this feature works, check out this article, and for setup instructions, visit this guide.
You can now add Google Tag Manager (GTM) to your Catalog, opening up more advanced tracking capabilities and improving your ability to monitor user behavior.
Settings fields have been optimized for clarity, helping you easily distinguish between what applies to parent and child accounts.
A new "Inherit from parent" setting has been added to simplify the configuration of Subcatalogs. This inheritance functionality is now extended to fields such as Measurement, TimeZone, and Google Analytics, giving you more control with less effort.
We’ve introduced the Meta Description field, making it easier to manage SEO settings for your Catalog pages.
To enhance your experience with Storefront management, we’ve reorganized the New Storefront setting and moved it into a dedicated tab. This ensures a cleaner interface and easier navigation.
Now that you’ve seen what’s new in the Beta, we’d love to know what you think! Your feedback is incredibly valuable as we continue to improve and refine the Catalog experience before the full production launch. Please take a moment to explore the redesigned Catalog info page and fill out our short survey by October 20st.
Thank you for being a part of our community and for helping us make Catalog even better!

Hello there! I’m Máté, Product Manager for Catalog at Instructure. I’ve been in product for 6 years now, working on tools that help people learn and grow. Before Instructure, I spent almost a decade in hospitality tech, which taught me a lot about building user-friendly systems and working across cultures. I also spent a few years lecturing at Corvinus University, which is where my mission to bring Canvas to Hungary really kicked off. These days, I’m focused on making Catalog even better for institutions that want to offer professional learning at scale. Outside of work, I love sailing, volleyball, and trying new things with AI. Currently building my own GPT agent.
