How do I force submit student attempts?

Review how to force submit attempts for all students or a single student.

You can force-submit student attempts that were not finished by the student. This can occur if a student forgets to push the Finish button.
When an Assignment has a lock date, forcing submissions is disabled until after the lock date has passed. If the assignment does not have a lock date (including Assign Overrides lock dates), users are allowed to force submissions but it will not prevent students from finishing currently-in-progress attempts.

If a student has not Viewed the assignment a forced submission will not occur and a grade will need to be manually entered in the Canvas Gradebook.
