If you see anything in the Release Notes you would like to try, contact online and strategic learning (at the email above) and we can help you get started.
How the Release Notes User Interface Works
The Release Notes UI is tied to Canvas user roles. Release notes and deploy notes are customized to each user role so that you only see the notes for default features that apply to you. A default feature is a feature that cannot be managed at any user level and will go into effect for all users on the intended date.
If you have multiple user roles, you will see multiple notes in the Help menu (introduced in the 2021-06-19 Canvas Release Notes). The links in the Help menu direct to user summaries for each individual role.
