How do I get an email notification when a participant posts a question?

Hello there,  @dee_gannon  Welcome to the Canvas Community.  Thank you for posting your question.  I am not sure if you are an instructor or a student, but you would set that up via your "Notifications" screen within your Canvas account.  Here are a couple Guides for you:

• How do I set my Canvas notification preferences as an instructor?
• How do I set my Canvas notification preferences as a student?

You'll want to look at the two rows under the heading Discussions on that page: "Discussion" and "Discussion Post".  Hover your mouse over the words "Discussion" and "Discussion Post", and you will see a pop-up description of what those two rows mean.  Then, set how frequently you'd like to receive e-mail notifications about those items.

I hope this information will be of help to you, Dee.  Sing out if you have any other questions about this...thanks!
