Bio:
I've been working in the digital education arena at the University of Michigan-Dearborn since 1999, when I was a sophomore student there. I helped create the courses for the university's first online degree program (Master of Education in Special Education) and have been involved in many related tasks since then. I am now the primary Canvas administrator for our campus, and oversee most other integrated tools as well. As of September 2023, I am a Canvas Certified Technical Admin.

Hi @LindseyJYoung, There are actually a variety of ways this can be done, depending on what your school has integrated with Canvas.  The most basic out-of-the-box way would be to follow the  How d...

Hi @KatieHolt, This sounds to me like a bug in Elucian ILP, but it's hard for me to say for sure.  We use Banner, but we developed a custom scripted process to get info from Banner to Canvas w...

Hi @IsabellaFaro, So I was assuming based on your initial post that you had an integration populated for each user, but sounds like this may not be the case after all.  In order to use the sis met...
