I'm trying to find my customer success manager to add Canvas Common and it seems that I need LMS? It's not clear. I am instructor at a college. I need to import a course from Canvas Common. How do I do that?
Hi there @crystar16 ,
While someone has already forwarded this for you, I wanted to add on.
To my knowledge, only certain Canvas Admins of an institution can directly contact their institution's assigned Customer Success Manager, if assigned one. This isn't someone Teachers and Students usually have access to directly get in contact with.
With Commons, a CSM must configure it for your institution before it becomes available. Commons is not automatically supported on all Canvas instances by default.
I'd recommend reaching out to your school's Canvas admin or IT department to see if Commons is something they'd be willing to ask to get configured for your school.
All the best,Noah

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…
