The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December.
Read our blog post for more info about this change.
The Canvas API has a call for content_migrations
Content Migrations - Canvas LMS REST API Documentation
And when you look at an individual course, you can see previously imported course content from the import content screen.
Is there anywhere in Canvas Data where this data is reported? We want to build a report of courses that imported content from specific courses.
In Canvas Data, not that I'm aware of, and looking at documentation not currently. Canvas Data is mostly a of rollup the current state of existing records... the task/job queue of those records is very transitional and kinda of out of the scope of CD.
In Live Events, there is a Payload Example : content_migration_completed event.
Additionally, the following events (Canvas format only) have job_tag fields that include content migration.
