Add Users to a Canvas Course
Taylor Long
Last Update 3 months ago
Instructors can add users to a Canvas course as a Bradley Observer, Librarian, SI Leader, Service Professional, Teacher, TA, Designer, or Observer. The person being added must have active Bradley credentials. It is important to note:
- Students officially registered for a course through AcInquire are automatically enrolled in courses. To protect the privacy of registered students and adhere to FERPA, students who have not registered cannot be manually added to a class in the 'Student' role.
Note: IT Support cannot add users to sites in Canvas without explicit written permission from the instructor of record's Bradley email account.
How to add a Bradley user to Canvas:
- Click People in the Course Navigation menu on the left side of your Canvas course.
- Click + People.
- Enter the Bradley email address or BUnetID for the user(s). Email addresses and BUnetIDs can be entered one per line or separated by commas. Email addresses must follow the below format: [email protected] (for faculty/staff), and [email protected] (for students).
- Select the role of the user in the Role menu.
- Select the section to which the user belongs. If the course only has one section, it is automatically chosen, and the menu is not displayed here.
- Click Add Users.
