Deactivate inactive staff and students in bulk?

[cgomez1]

We have staff and students that are no longer in our district.  How do you deactivate staff and students in bulk from our current Canvas instance?

Hello @cgomez1 

You can deactivate users in bulk using a csv SIS Import. Essentially, you'll make a csv for the users and their status is what will remove them. Here is the guide and it has an example csv for you to download:
