Bio:
I've been working in the digital education arena at the University of Michigan-Dearborn since 1999, when I was a sophomore student there. I helped create the courses for the university's first online degree program (Master of Education in Special Education) and have been involved in many related tasks since then. I am now the primary Canvas administrator for our campus, and oversee most other integrated tools as well. As of September 2023, I am a Canvas Certified Technical Admin.

Hi @AdminCanvasIC, I feel like serving up raw html documents via the Canvas files area has always been somewhat of a gray area in terms of functional support for it.  We've been a Canvas insti...

Seeing the same here.  Sub-accounts are not alphabetically ordered anymore, and the list no longer included the sis_id and account_id of each subaccount.  The notes only call out changes to creating s...
