You’ve Got Mail: How to Try New Conversations in Canvas

New Conversations has been an opt-in tool since September, and Instructure has slowly added functionality since then. New Conversations functions significantly more like traditional email than the current Conversations tool. Subject lines, both in the tool and in notifications, are the most recent addition.

New Conversations is an opt-in tool. To switch to the new view:

1. Open your Inbox.

Inbox_Link

2. Under the ? on the right-hand side, choose “Try New Conversations.”

Switch_Convos

This will bring up the New Conversations inbox.

New_conversations

You can use a similar ? to switch back.

Switch_Back
