Update timeline

  1. identified Sep 15, 2022, 03:56 PM UTC

    As of Wednesday, Sept. 14th, we are seeing new meetings from Canvas with the following lock settings enabled by default: Share webcam See other viewers' webcams Share microphone Send Public chat messages Send Private chat messages We are working with Instructure to further investigate the cause of the lock settings being enabled by default. The workaround, for now, is that moderators can manually unlock these settings once the meeting has begun.
