[Course Settings] Restrict Inbox Conversation messages for a specific course
In the past we have encountered issues with spam and phishing attempts sent through the Canvas Inbox for courses that have very large enrollments. As a result we have changed our practices and no longer support courses with mass enrollments. We are not able to support this type of use case due to the information security concerns from potential spam and phishing attempts sent to students through the Canvas Inbox.
As a Canvas admin, we would like the ability to disable or restrict Inbox conversations for specific courses. Specifically, we would like to restrict this permission for the Student Role in these courses. This would allow for expanded use cases of Canvas at our institution. For example, we would like to use Canvas to support a required online orientation to support our admissions process. We would also like to enroll all students at our institution into a course that provides resources, such as a College Life course which would display on the Canvas Dashboard for students enrolled in the course.
