Hi There,

Is there any way to make the canvas to be auto updated with the latest SIS data

Thanks

I'm going to move this question over to the Canvas Developers Group, because you'll probably get a better response over there.  But yes, you can connect your SIS to Canvas.  For example, at our Technical College, we send student data from our Banner SIS to Canvas.  You'll want to follow this group in order to post replies.

You can use the Canvas API to import SIS into Canvas.  The documentation has some information about it (Canvas LMS REST API Documentation ). If you have imported any data through the Canvas Admin page then you probably already know the way the files need to be formatted. If not, here is another link to one of the help guides: How do I format CSV text files for uploading data into Canvas?

Hi Deactivated user,

I am going through having a look at some of the early days in the Canvas Developers group, and checking in to see if older enquiries have been answered. I also noticed there hasn’t been any discussion on this question in quite some time.

I am wondering, were you ever able to resolve this with the assistance provided? I am hoping I can assume that it is well and truly resolved by now, but if not, please let us know and we can certainly have another look. Alternatively, if have some insights you may be able to share for others that would be awesome too!

I will mark this as assumed answered for the time being, however, by all means please let us know if you still have an outstanding question and we will take a peek!

Cheers,
Stuart
