Canvas

If your institution has set up Canvas grade passback (GPB) with Qmlativ, you can sync your Canvas course gradebook to your Qmlativ gradebook. However, you must first specify which assignment(s) in the course should be included in a GPB sync.

You can also specify which graded discussions and quizzes should be included in GPB sync.

Notes:

Once set up for SIS sync, you can enable or disable synced items on the Assignment and Quizzes index pages. In the Assignments Index Page, you can also disable all assignments from being synced to Qmlativ.
Non-graded assignment types cannot be synced to Qmlativ.

Open Assignments

In Course Navigation, click the Assignments link.

Add Assignment

Click the Add Assignment button.

Edit Assignment

Alternatively, you can edit an existing assignment. To open the assignment, click the assignment name [1]. Then on the assignment's details page, click the Edit button [2].

Add Assignment Name

Enter a name for the assignment in the Assignment Name field.

For GPB with Qmlativ to work, assignment names must be 30 or fewer characters.

Select Sync to SIS

On the assignment details page, select the Sync to SIS checkbox. The assignment and any student scores will be included when you sync your Canvas gradebook to Qmlativ.

Notes:

Your institution can auto-enable all assignments to be sent to Qmlativ. To exclude an assignment from SIS sync, de-select the Sync to SIS checkbox.
The SIS checkbox also displays on quizzes and graded discussions details pages.
The SIS checkbox does not display for non-graded assignment types.
The Sync to SIS option may display the name of your institution's SIS.

Add Due Date

Enter a due date in the Due field [1].

Canvas supports differentiated assignment due dates. However, Qmlativ GPB requires a due date for the Assign to Everyone option [2].

Correct any errors and save the assignment.
