As an admin, am I able to archive a course that includes the student data via the GUI or an API? I a aware of the new K16 archiving solution but was wondering it is possible to do it outside of that vendor.
Thank you in advance for your help!
I guess I would need to understand better what is meant by "archiving."
All our courses remain, with student data, after courses end/conclude. They get moved to Past Enrollments which for our district is, in essence, archived. There are some settings that can be changed where students can or can not view content in a course after it concludes; our default is to allow them to view content (they cannot view quizzes after a course concludes). But this setting can be changed in the course.
Hi @casey_eubank
If you mean "archive" in the sense that some other LMSs (like Blackboard) allow, where you can save everything included course contents, student data, grades, etc. to a file that can be saved into a backup storage system and imported back into Canvas later, then no, there's not really any built-in functionality to do that.
@LEASUSAN
When you say "ancient legacy content", are you referring to actual course content, or are you referring to student submissions/activity/grades?
I believe it's old course content from the system we had before Canvas. I spot checked a few courses and didn't see any student data.
Ok, great. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything obvious. Thanks!

Hi everyone, It looks like the multiple rubric idea has bounced around a bit with the different feature request methodologies over the years, including a mention in New & Next 2024 according to this post, interviews in the enhanced rubrics features group, being listed as "under consideration" on the new roadmap, and this…
We are using the Learning Mastery Gradebook with an rubric on account-level. When we enter the gradebook, the sorting does not make any sense. How can we make the sorting so it makes sense to us. It feels like a randam sorting.
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
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…
