My learners often need a proof of enrollment (that shows what class they are enrolling in and when) or a letter of completion (what class they took and their earned grade). Does anyone have any ideas on how this could be automated through Canvas? Currently, they email me for these requests and I generate them manually from a templated word document.
Without building or buying an app, there's nothing native that I'm aware of that would do what you want.
Hi @wak5oq_UCGCP_2026
I wonder if this is something that your organisation might provide under a standard format, rather than you creating the information? This way all the records are verified and provided by the relevant source from your organisation?
@wak5oq_UCGCP_2026 Not directly through Canvas. However, if your school uses the Microsoft 365 suite, you could use Power Automate to automate this process. For example: when an email or request is received → make an API request (a way to pull data from Canvas without having to interact with it visually) to Canvas LMS to retrieve the relevant student data → merge the data into a document → send it back to the student. Alternatively, you could explore other workflow automation platforms such as n8n
Feel free to send me a PM if you're interested in setting this up, or reply below and I’ll be happy to help.
I am interested in the procedure on certificates/surveys in canvas via Power Automate.

Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
Hello! A caution to my fellow Admins and support folks that Instructure updated their live-chat link (the one in the "(?) Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
