How do I manage automated deadline nudges in Canvas Catalog?
As a Canvas Catalog admin, you can automatically send personalized reminder emails to students based on course end dates and progress. These nudges are configured through a dedicated automation menu and use customizable templates with dynamic variables.
Notes:
- Deadline nudge emails only apply to courses, not programs.
