How do I add administrators to my class roster?
Hi @FrancesRichmond,
I'm not sure if you are referring to school/institution administrators (line a Principal, Dean, Department Chair, etc) or Canvas Admins. For Canvas Admins, there is no need to add them to a course, as they will have access to courses at your school/institution pretty much automatically as part of their Canvas admin role. For school/institution administrators, you can follow the how do I add users to a course guide, with the caveat that your school/institution may have policies in place restricting who is allowed to do this in the system. If you don't see the buttons mentioned in the guide, you'd likely need to reach out to your local Canvas team (usually in the eLearning / IT / Digital Education areas).
Hope this helps!

We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
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…
