[Notifications] Add Student Name to Observer Notification Emails

[NATHANLEE1]

Problem statement:

Observers currently receive notifications from each Canvas course depending on their notification settings. However, the notification emails say the course name, but not the student name, so our families with multiple students in the district using Canvas, can not use the email as a quick glance update- instead, they use it to log in to Canvas to see which student the assignment/grade/due date notification is in reference to.

Proposed solution:

Can student names be added to the Canvas notification emails?

User role(s):

Hi @NATHANLEE1 - 

In the guide How do I manage my Canvas notification settings as an observer?, there is a section that outlines how to show the name of the observed student in notifications. I hope this is what you're hoping to accomplish!
