How do I view and manage Canvas Aeries grade sync schedules for my institution?
If your institution has configured Canvas-SIS grade passback, you can view your grade sync schedules in the SIS Integration page. Any course grading updates made in Canvas within the defined interval are reflected in your SIS gradebook after a completed sync. Canvas Course grading updates can include new assignments, adding assignment scores, posting grades, and changing assignment grades. You can also pause grade sync schedules.
Grade passback schedules are configured during Canvas SIS integration implementation. To make changes to your sync schedules, or to add scheduled syncs, contact the Instructure SIS Support Team.
