My course is published as of today. I'm trying to see my students. I see no People tab? Help.
Thanks
Hi @willamwatson1 ,Does your school pay for Canvas? Are you using the free for teacher version?
Either way, there are a couple ways to view the people in your course. The first way is locating the 'People' button located on your courses side-navigation bar. Another way is by going to your course settings > sections and by clicking on the name of the section and the list of people will appear.
The last way to view your users is by adding /users to the end of your course URL. For example, the URL would look like this: schoolname.instructure.com/courses/344/users. Replace schoolname with your school's name, or with the word canvas if you're using the free for teacher edition.
I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!

Hi @willamwatson1,
If you are not seeing a "People" link from the left-side course navigation, you may have clicked on the "three horizontal lines" icon (commonly referred to as a "hamburger" menu in web design) in the upper-left corner next to either the Canvas logo or your institution's logo.
The University of Minnesota has a "Canvas: Course Navigation Menu Show/Hide Toggle" support article at https://it.umn.edu/services-technologies/how-tos/canvas-course-navigation-menu-showhide that can help you out.

You could check in course Settings, under the Navigation tab, to see if People is activated. Activated items appear in the top list. If it's in the bottom list, you can drag it to the top. Don't for get to press Save at the bottom before leaving Navigation.
Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
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…
