I know it is possible to sync the Canvas calendar with a Google calendar, but am I able to sync or import a Google calendar into Canvas?
Thank you!
Hello @JenniferIntelic
Thank you for contacting the Instructure Community. The short answer is no - you can sync your Canvas Calendar to other calendars like Google but you cannot import personal calendar data to your Canvas page. The calendar was a custom built tool to display events and assignments for the courses you are taking and doesn't function fully like your Google Calendar. Unfortunately, you would need to make events manually. Here is the Canvas guide:

Hi @JenniferIntelic ,
I'm not sure about your exact need, but you can display your Google calendar on a Canvas Page if that suits your needs. You could do this by getting the embed code for your Google calendar (instructions here) and then using the embed tool on the page (the cloud icon on the tool bar). This would allow your Canvas users to view your selected Google calendar, and it would update dynamically in Canvas when you updated it in Google. If you also synced your Canvas calendar into your Google, then the Google calendar that displayed on your Canvas page would show Canvas items, too.

I teach middle school and my students have recently discovered the ability to play the "what-if" game with grades. They are now obsessed and are playing with it all the time. For the preservation of their sanity I would like to turn it off but don't want to hide their course grade. Is there a way to do so? PLEASE HELP by…
I'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
