Is it possible to send out a message to all of the students at our school via Canvas messages? I need to send messages via Canvas to all the students at our school as requested by my Principal. I am an Administrator.
Canvas Inbox isn't really made to send out messages to all students in Canvas at one time. It is made to send to individual accounts or all students in a particular course. If we need to get a message out to all students/faculty or both we use the global announcement feature in Canvas and as long as students/faculty haven't disabled getting notifications when a new announcement is posted they will get an email and/or notification in the Canvas app.

And the Community Champion in the question above said " It is made to send to individual accounts or all students in a particular course." As an Admin, I am not able to send to all students in a particular course, which is what I need to do.
