[ARCHIVED] Migrating from BlackBoard 9.1 to Canvas

[OliverKharas]

Hi all,

I wondered if there is a way to automate the move of around 1000 course sites from BlackBoard to Canvas?

You can run a script to download from Blackboard, and then import to Canvas. There are plenty of threads on this topic. Honestly you DO NOT want to do this. The amount of effort to 'reshape' the import from blackboard isn't worth it. Use it as an opportunity to rejig & refresh the units. I say this as someone who moved 6k of units from Bb to Canvas a few years ago 🙂
