Hi
Can a student log into canvas, in spite of the school/College website being down.
Is there a common/generic URL to login to Canvas, that can be made available, outside of school websites.
https://NameOfCollege.instructure.com/login
https://myportal.NameOfCollege.edu/.../Canvas
Is https://canvas.instructure.co m /login/canvas a generic link, Can a student login and complete their homework.
Thanks
jyoti
Hello, Jyoti Gavali
Welcome to the Canvas Community! There is not a generic website for all Canvas courses; the URL is specific to the school. Some schools use the [yourschool].instructure.com configuration, whereas others use a vanity URL. Whether or not you are able to log into your Canvas courses when the school's authentication provider (website) is down depends on what provisions the school has made for its users. It's been my experience that many if not most schools do not provide a means for bypassing their authentication process.
The canvas.instructure.com website you referenced in your question is not a generic URL; it is where Free For Teachers courses are housed.
Hope your website comes back up soon!
