In our other vendor LMS system we could easily supply a specific course template course identifier for our SIS Import files. This allowed us to use different course template courses depending on the course format such as one for face-to-face/on-campus courses, online, or hybrid/blended.
While I see Canvas added the Course Templates feature:
https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Releases/Canvas-Release-Notes-2021-05-15/ta-p/458153#toc-hId--165...
It unfortunately can only set a single template course to choose from the drop down list for our SIS Imports. We need to be able to use different template courses depending on the type of courses we are importing. If we had the ability in the SIS Imports Course CSV file a column such as course_template_id to specify a particular template course then we could use different ones.
In addition to the above SIS Import requested feature, for manually created courses it would be nice to be able to expand the recent Canvas Course Templates feature that was added to set one template course for each Course Format (On-Campus, Online, Blended) and if we wanted to have different for each Sub-Account then that would be ideal.
Thank you!
