I've checked on three of the instances I manage and none of them have the feature available. It does appear in BETA, but doesn't seem to do anything. In the release notes, it is mentioned that in BETA, it won't work until Apr. 1, presumably after the data sync.

I've been developing a small suite of Administrator Tools for Canvas using Retool. It's a low-code, Javascript based tool that allows me to rapidly prototype tools and UI connected to the Canvas API. It also offers a Postgres database for storage, all for FREE. Of course, there's larger paid accounts, but at least for me, I've been able to build some cool stuff with no restrictions.

You may need to reach out to your CSM to get the live events support enabled. The feature is called "Data Services". Then, in the docs, you'll find an event called "submission_created": https://collegiseducation.instructure.com/doc/api/file.data_service_canvas_submission.html#submission_created

Do you have a screenshot of the 404 error? It's hard to say where the error might be without a screenshot or additional details because it could be caused by the LTI provider.

From what I can tell, when it comes to Instructure hosted account (SssS), you should be able to safely assume your instance is running the "latest" build. Instructure's public releases (for self-hosted servers) are date-based with minor numbers added for patches. You can find them here: https://github.com/instructure/canvas-lms/tags

One way this could be achieved would be exposing the localization files in some fashion. For example, a "Localization Editor" tool could provide the ability to change localized strings like "Courses" to something else entirely. You can see how these files are built here: https://canvas.instructure.com/javascripts/translations/es.json

@James Well, I believe that adding the absolute url in the Link Options pane could be the symptom of the buggy behavior. It happens when you save any changes to a link using the Link Options pane. Even if you change the URL back to a relative url and not an absolute one. I'm starting to think it's a real bug now. I edited the "Welcome" link in my example and changed the text to "Welcomes" using the Link Options, making sure to re-set the URL to be a relative one. Here's the result:
<p style="text-align: center;">
<a class="inline_disabled" title="Welcome" href="/courses/215/modules/1033" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Welcomes</a>
</p>

I've run into this problem recently where it seems like all the links to other content in my course are opening in a new window. They all seem to have the following attributes added to the link:
class="inline_disabled" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"
Doing some testing, I've found that if you use the "Link Options" on any internal link, it will automatically change it to treat it like an external link. This is because the URL is converted to a fully qualified URL.
Here's what the code looks like:
<p style="text-align: center;">
<a class="inline_disabled" title="Welcome" href="https://MYSHCOOL.instructure.com/courses/215/modules/1033" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Start Here</a>
</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<a title="Welcome" href="/courses/215/modules/1033">Start Here Too</a>
</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<a title="Welcome" href="/courses/215/modules/1033">Welcome</a>
</p>
The first link (Start Here) was edited using the "Link Options" menu. The second link (Start Here Too) was created by highlighting the text first, then linking to the module. The third link was inserted into the page without selecting anything first. If I were to edit this link to give it a better name, the HTML would look like the first (Start Here) link.
Is this supposed to happen like this? My IDs are currently struggling with this issue and although it can be fixed, it's a lot of manual editing of HTML that not all are comfortable with.
Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
