We have in Canvas courses that have no enrollments; is there a way to send a file with those "wrong" sections and have them deleted/removed from Canvas?

Hi @FatouThiam 

How were the courses created?

If they were created by importing a feed file using the SIS Import process, then you can send another feed file through with the "bad" courses having a status of "deleted", and they will be naked as deleted by the system.  See https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Basics-Guide/What-are-SIS-Imports/ta-p/47 

However, if the courses were manually created via the GUI, then you would not be able to use the SIS Imports process to delete them...at least not without doing some additional work to add an SIS ID setting to each of the courses.
