[ARCHIVED] Vote for Restrict Access to Canvas Catalog

[jsowalsk]

Hi everyone,

Please upvote this feature idea: https://community.canvaslms.com/ideas/12667-restrict-access-to-canvas-catalog 

We would like to have a way to be able to restrict non-UMD (gmail.com, yahoo.com, hotmail.com etc.) types of email addresses at the sub-catalog level for particular courses who only want UMD students, faculty, and staff to enroll in their courses. The reason being is that if a department posts a course link on an external webpage anyone in the world would be able to enroll in this course.

As a workaround currently, we have posted the below content on the course cards to try to have people not enroll in courses even though if they select the enroll button they will be able to enroll in the course.

Thank you in advance,

Jessica

I would also like to see this feature added asap!  It would make Catalog truly useful for internal professional development.   It is all about the money. 

As a workaround to support professional development, I made a "secret" internal subcatalog with free courses.  I would like to limit enrollments from this subcatalog to those with an okstate.edu email address so we won't incur user fees for them.  Right now, in reality, anyone who finds this page can enroll.  We want others to enroll from the main catalog, where the courses do cost money to offset user fees.
