Hi @RobertHerron ...
@James Jones has created a way to upload a rubric via a spreadsheet to Canvas. In my former position as a Canvas administrator at a college in Wisconsin, I used his tool a lot, and it saved me so much time. Here is a link with all his instructions. You'll need to install a plug-in for Chrome in order to use this. Importing Rubrics from a Spreadsheet
This is just one of many "Canvancements" that James has created, and you can find more of his scripts here: Canvancements - Canvas Enhancements - Instructure Community - 246997 (canvaslms.com)
I hope this helps!

Hi @RobertHerron ...
Yeah...that's correct. You'll create the rubric in Excel following the examples that James has provided, then you'll copy/paste those cells into a text box that James' script creates inside of Canvas. It will automatically create the rubric for you. It's pretty slick, and like I said, it has saved me tons of time creating rubric lines one by one.
On a side note, Instructure is working on a rubric redesign, and I wanted to provide you with a couple links. In the first link, you'll see in Phase 2 of their project that importing rubrics is something that they will be working on for everyone. So, it may be that James' script becomes obsolete at some point.
