I got a 502 error message. Is anyone experiencing this?
Hi @CallieAlreza ...
You can always check Instructure Status to see if Canvas is up and running. In addition, there is a link at the very top of that page that takes you to a screen where you can enter in your own school's Canvas URL, and it will also give you data just for your school, but I believe that data might be delayed by 24 hours. As of right now, it does look like there is an issue with "Outcomes Service backlogged", but I'm not sure if that's at all related to the error you are seeing.
Have you tried clearing your browser history/cache, restarting your browser, and then re-logging in? Or, have you tried a different browser completely?
I hope this will be of some help to you!
Hi @CallieAlreza,
From the link @Chris_Hofer provided, there were two separate documented incidents.
One was specifically related to New Quizzes (https://status.instructure.com/incidents/xvkdr6w1shc7) between 09:57 MST (11:57 EST) and 13:22 MST (1:22 PM MST or 15:22 EST / 3:22 EST).
The other was generically related to users getting 504 errors (https://status.instructure.com/incidents/dm0mstxckcyh) between 15:19 MST (3:19 PM MST or 17:19 EST / 5:19 PM EST) and 15:48 MST (3:48 PM MST or 17:48 / 5:48 PM EST).
You posted this question at 5:42 PM EST (17:42 EST or 3:42 PM MST / 15:42 MST). At the time, the New Quizzes incident had been resolved and getting 504 errors (while technically different than the 502 error that you received) was in the process of being resolved.

I have recently setup the Canva for Education Integration with our Canvas instance. We are noticing that if teachers create Assignments using the External tool from their Blueprint course that students who submit their assignments are running into issues. Teachers are unable to see their submissions via the Speedgrader and…
Our college would like to disable the Core Canvas tool "Syllabus" by default, so that it automatically doesn't show on Course Navigation menus. Is that possible? A fellow admin asked our CSM about disabling Syllabus by default, but the CSMs may be understandably busy at the moment. Below I rounded up some past comments…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
