Thank you for the reply, @chadscott . This part: The only way you can accomplish this would be to turn off the ability for students to message individuals within the course. If your TA's are enrolled in the course with the TA role (or something built off the TA role), then the students will only be able to message the teacher. The caveat to this will be if students have messaged the TA previously, those messages will allow them to continue messaging them from that message (but new messages will not be able to be created.) is inconsistent with my testing. I toggled the setting you mentioned in our beta instance and was still able to message TAs using a user account that has never previously sent any messages in the inbox. Is it possible this is linked to a different setting? The additional considerations on this setting say: Conversations When disabled, students can still send individual messages to course teachers, course TAs, and students that belong to the same account-level groups. What am I missing?

We need to keep our teaching assistants anonymous. Some users have found that they can find the name of their teaching assistant by sending them a message in the inbox. Is there a way to disable this ability? We tried toggling the Conversations permissions off, but this did not work.

We're seeing some funky results in the workflow_state of some users in our data, and I'm looking for some definitions of terms. Possible statuses are: creation_pending deleted pre_registered registered There are no definitions in the documentation. I did find one post on this forum where a user made an educated guess about it, but I'd love to get some more clarity, especially around the creation_pending and pre_registered statuses. Can anybody help?

It looks like some of the Canvas Guides have been updated to reflect the new change (example: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Student-Guide/How-do-I-view-Assignments-as-a-student/ta-p/451), but not all of them (https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Studio/How-do-I-submit-Canvas-Studio-media-as-a-File-Upload-assignment/ta-p/1677). We link these and other guides in our help course. When can we expect the guides to be fully updated?

I need to run a report on users that have accounts in our instance but aren't enrolled in any courses. When I run a provisioning report, it requires me to choose a term. Even selecting "All Terms," the most permissive setting, only returns users that are associated with a term, and therefore a course. I've looked through the documentation and I don't see a report that returns users with no enrollments. Am I missing something, or is this information not available?

Thanks, @gnoack. I hadn't thought of unpublishing the content, as I was looking for a more systemic way to do this, but this can work on a small scale. I experimented with unpublishing the modules. A student can still click on the grade in the gradebook and see their own submission, along with the filled-out rubric, but not the assignment instructions or any other module content. I'm still hoping to find a setting that will allow me to do this on a larger scale, but this will work for now. Thanks again!

Is there a way to allow students to access the gradebook and the feedback they've received on assignments without allowing them to also access the content of a completed course?
