The help article on importing Rubrics from spreadsheets was written in 2018 and appears to be out of date. In particular, the "import" button does not appear in the location described. Are there more up to date instructions on how to do this?
Hi @ralmond,
Can you give a link to the guide you're referring to? I have a feeling it may be a user post, and not actually an official guide, but it would be good to verify.
As far as I know, the original rubrics interface in Canvas did not have any official rubric importing ability. If your school/institution has Enhances Rubrics available, that improvement does add an import and you can find the instructions at How do I import rubric assessments using Enhanced Rubrics? - Instructure Community.
I hope this info helps!

Hi @ralmond …
I'm guessing that you were looking at James Jones' "Canvancement" (Canvas Enhancement) called Importing Rubrics from a Spreadsheet. I used this all the time in my previous job when I would build Canvas courses for our faculty. It adds an "Import Rubric" button to the "Rubrics" screen. It was a huge time saver for sure!
I do agree with @Chris that you may be using the newer Enhanced Rubrics interface, which may not work with James' script. In fact, I believe the format to import rubrics from a spreadsheet is different from what James originally created. You'll want to refer to the Guide that Chris linked to in his post.
I hope this will be of some help to you. Good luck!
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
