Export Classlist with Student Email Addresses

0 Likes

We have a number of faculty on our campus who use Excel in tandem with Canvas to manage various aspects of their courses. Our old LMS, Brightspace, had a one-click option to export a list of students and their email addresses. Canvas doesn't seem to have that, and I'd like to suggest it as an idea. I know it has been brought up many times in the Community to no avail:

 

Export Email Addresses

 

Many of the solutions involve Admin-level workarounds or coding hacks that are well beyond the capability of most of our faculty. I'm a Canvas Admin and I get this question all the time, and it's more than a little frustrating that Canvas can't perform what seems like such a simple task.

@sringsmuth Thanks for providing the link to existing conversations; that's very helpful. Did you see the solution posted at the end of the Solved: Export Student Email - Canvas Community thread? It explains how to download a CSV of this list from New Analytics.

You might also want to add your comments to an idea that would likely need to be developed as a first step to such an export: Display Default Email in People - Canvas Community
