Does Canvas have an SFTP site?
We are trying to integrate a new SIS and I have not gotten any response from Canvas to meet with our IT department to provide 1/4 of the way to integration.
@CindyCFFP,
What SIS are you trying to integrate with Canvas? This may help find other users that are using the same SIS and may be able to share insight on how their integration works.
There is more information available about several of the SIS integrations that Canvas/Instructure Support in the following article and it mentions that some may use SFTP: What student information system (SIS) integrations are available in Canvas?
Also, it would be good to follow-up with your CSM and/or Canvas Support. They will be able to assist you more directly with guidance related to the SIS integration for your instance of Canvas.
Hi Cindy,
I don't know if this would be an acceptable alternative for you to SFTP, but there is an API endpoint for SIS Uploads that may allow you to automate the loading of SIS data into your Canvas instance if the SFTP option from Anthology is unavailable.

How do I add a student to an existing benchmark assessment tracker? The students were imported from our SIS when tracker was created and this student has recently enrolled.
My school has traditionally used a script to send files for SIS import, and sends CSV files for users, enrollments, courses, etc. I want to transition this import to use full batch imports for each term. I saw the full batch import script below for Powershell, but we use Linux servers. Does anyone have a version they would…
Hello, we are a school that is new to FACTS this year and are looking for support with syncing grades in Canvas with our SIS, FACTS. We seem to be missing some required functionality. Also, will we be able to be sync grades at the admin level or will teachers be responsible for completing this process as required?…
My school uses that for official grades, and I know that Canvas can send assignments to Skyward, is it possible for Skyward to send back grades? I love Canvas' grade calculator but unfortunately because Skyward is "the most accurate reflection of a student's grade" according to my school, how can Skyward be better used…
