Hello,
I know how to email the student an invite but I do not know how to add the student to the course before I send the invite. How do I add new students to a course for the first time?
Thank you.
Hi @RobinFerruggia,
It’s been a while since we’ve heard from you. We hope you are doing well and that you’ve found an answer to your question!
Usually schools/institutions will enroll students into via automated mechanisms. If you need to enroll students on your own, you can follow the How do I add users to a course? - Instructure Community guide, keeping in mind that if your institution does do automated enrollment, you may not have access to do manual enrollments at all.

My school district has changed our required Learning Outcomes for all of our courses for this school year. How can I archive the 400+ Learning Outcomes we used last school year so they're still linked to our 25-26 courses but teachers can't use them in 26-27 courses going forward?
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…
