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.

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!

I am working on utilizing the new Portfolio feature for our review of evidence in the practicum experience. Limitations we have come across are that multiple instructors within a course are not able to see the portfolio, only the instructor who created it. Is this something that will be available in the future? Or is there…
It is possible to import tags or other metadata when importing in a QTI file? I've tried everything I can think of, but it seems to get stripped out every time. Are any metadata types allowed? I can bring in a batch of tags questions or manually tag each one. Tagging each one is not an option. I'm using New Quizzes, so I…
Hello all! I am new to Canvas. I am trying to share IDs and passwords that are unique to students using the Gradebook like I have done in the past with Bb. How are you sharing information only fields to students that are not grades, but are important and unique to students? Since our university wants the LMS to be the…
Is there a setting where I can hide my students grade summaries on the dashboard but keep the individual category grades visible for them on their main grade page? I'll describe a little below. I want the overall course grade to be hidden from my course image on the students' dashboard with all their other courses, but I…
