I imported a class into my canvas course and I now what to delete what I imported. How do I do this?
At my college, I can delete individual items one by one. It's easy to delete a lot of pages at a time by going into View All Pages. Other items (quizzes, discussions, assignments) will have to be deleted individually. (Note: Keep in mind that you need to "delete" the items you don't want. Just "removing" them from modules doesn't actually get rid of them.)
In order to completely delete the contents of my course, I would need to contact my institution's Canvas administrator. At my school, instructors are not given permission to completely wipe a course shell's content in order to prevent someone from making a colossal mistake.
@ElizabethBloom ...
In addition to the information you received from @SusanNiemeyer, you *may* be able to completely wipe out all the content on your own so that you can re-import content from somewhere else (if that was the initial intent). If you want to completely clean out your course all at one time, you can try using this Guide:
How do I reset course content?
However, as Susan has noted, you may not be able to do this on your own, and you would then need to reach out to your school's Canvas administrator or someone from your school's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Learning team. They would be able to assist you with this.
Hope this extra bit of info will also be of help to you! Good luck!

When the servers are heavily loaded I have seen student need to wait 5 minutes for this. When submitting at…
If I access to the student card I can see the recent messages, but I would like to see all the messages, not only the recent. Thank you
We are testing a third party integration from our college's ERP provider. We have connected it to our test environment. It seems to have very few features and options. So, just wondering if there is a way to monitor API calls. I was able to use the DAPClient in Python to download canvas_logs in our production environment.…
To the Canvas Product Team, I am writing to request a new global or course-level setting for the Rich Content Editor (RCE). Currently, when images are uploaded or embedded, Canvas defaults to displaying the full image. For many lab-based and data-heavy courses—such as my current molecular biology lab course—we often need…
Our Spanish department uses New Quizzes/Essay question type for students to record themselves talking using the record media function in the RCE. They did this all last year. However, now when the students log in to take the quize, the upload/record media icon isn't available to them. Is this a new issues? Anyone have any…
