CSV File for Gradebook

[magssf]

Hello - can someone please send me the CSV file used for grading students submissions so I can just upload to Canvas? I click on the link and nothing works.  Thank you!

Hello magssf...

I'm not really sure what you mean when you ask someone to send you a CSV file.  Have you taken a look at these Guides?

• How do I export grades in the Gradebook?
• How do I import grades in the Gradebook?

Yes but I click on the link below and nothing happens:

What browser are you using, magssf?

CHROME

Hi again, magssf...

When you select the option to Export your course Gradebook using Google Chrome, you should see an indication that the file downloaded a few seconds later at the bottom of your Chrome browser window.  There will be a little carrot (upward-pointing arrow) icon next to the file name, and you can click on that icon to select "Show in folder".  This would open up a window to show your downloads via Chrome.

Alternatively, you may want to click on the three dots at the top right corner of your Chrome browser and then select "Downloads" (or just press Ctrl+J on your keyboard).  This will show you a listing of recent files you've downloaded to your computer, and you can click on the link to "Show in folder" to access the CSV there, too.

I hope this will help, Margaret.

If you want to import Grades from a CSV file, then you are going to need to refer back to the linked Guide I provided you earlier today.  However, you'll want to look through that Guide to know exactly how to prepare the rows and columns so that Canvas will be able to import your grades successfully.  It might be best to first download (export) a CSV from your course Gradebook...that way, those columns are already there for you, and then you can edit the CSV "offline" as needed, and then re-upload it back to your course Gradebook.  (Refer to the information in the blue box of that Guide.)
