Is there a way to import a single item from a course in the commons?? For example, I want to import one quiz from a course that has 97 billion other items in it. There must be a way!

Unfortunately, Commons does not let you pull out a specific item from an entire course that has been shared to Canvas Commons. In your example, you would not be able to import a quiz from the entire course that was shared to Commons. The owner of that course would have to share the quiz separately to Commons, and then you could import it into your own course.
Sorry I don't have better news for you, but I hope this helps to answer your question.
@wilsonj81 A solution that we've used is to pull the course into a "Sandbox" course and "copy to" the real course. We often do this for any Commons course, as normal process, so that we can preview in our environment especially if there is units of measurement (e.g. Imperial vs Metric) and want to check fro consistency.
This has been useful when we've wanted particular pages and/or quizzes but not the whole assignment/discussions etc.
This does require having a SandBox.
Hi to the community, I understand the two reporting options in Canvas for Outcomes. I need a curriculum overview report to show what outcomes from the institutional menu are being utilized in each individual course. What we have done: Our accrediting body, AACN, has a set of Domains and Competencies that nursing must meet,…
A and B are each actually areas of the workshop with a different emphasis. Having the students split between areas makes equipment access easier. How do I allow students to choose between working in area A for the first half of the term, then area B for the second half of the term, or the opposite, while using Course…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
