App Centre

[EmmaGlacken]

How can I disable the App Centre so Teachers do not add lots of apps that are not required at the minute and may also need configuration to work!?!

Hello @EmmaGlacken

You can disable teachers from adding apps to their courses by going to permissions. It is located under "Manage LTI" disable it completely to stop teachers from adding, editing, or deleting apps within their courses.

Here is the Canvas guide:

Hi @EmmaGlacken ...

In addition to the information that you received from @greydon, Canvas administrators can also whitelist certain LTI apps available from the EduAppCenter.com website so that instructors can only install those "approved" apps and not other apps that you might not want instructors to install on their own. There are some administrator Guides available at this link which I think might also be of help to you:

• How do I create and manage organizations in the Edu App Center?
• How do I manage an allow list in the Edu App Center?
• How do I manage an Edu App Center allow list in Canvas?

Hopefully this additional information will be of some help to you...should you want to explore this option.
