As a Canvas Admin:
What's the most efficient way to conclude old courses lacking term dates?
What's the most efficient way to remove/delete former students from the instance?
@holimoch Welcome!
If the courses and students have SIS IDs then the easiest way is to prepare a SIS Import file to conclude courses and delete former students. There's some samples there for you to look at.
Pro tip - run the SIS Export report for courses.csv then edit the file and upload it back.
If they don't have SIS IDs (more likely your courses than your students, I hope) then you'll need to run the Provisioning report and then use the API to conclude the courses.
Edit: just to show you the power of SIS imports, I ran a SIS import for 66k + courses this summer to conclude and put courses in an Archive subaccount. Making the file was very easy and uploading it for Canvas to process was easier. I have code examples for both situations if you need examples. Hope this helps!

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…
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.
