Unsubscribe from email notifications from D2L Brightspace

Overview

Students and instructors can use the unsubscribe link in a notification email from D2L Brightspace. The individual may wish to unsubscribe to reduce unwanted emails. Selecting the unsubscribe link opens a confirmation screen that allows an individual to opt out of their Brightspace email notifications (instant and summary).

Notes:

• The unsubscribe process does not require the individual to enter their D2L Brightspace login credentials, which allows them to opt out with logging in.
• If the individual accidentally chooses to unsubscribe, they must log in to D2L Brightspace to re-subscribe from the Notifications tool. 
• This unsubscribe process does not opt you out of emails sent directly to you (such as from an instructor or students) or from Intelligent Agent emails.
