How do I use Analytics Hub to access all my Instructure data from one place?

As a Canvas admin, you can use Analytics Hub to access data and analytics from Canvas as well as from other Instructure products such as Mastery and Impact. Your suite of analytics tools and data are based on your purchases (such as Intelligent Insights, Mastery products, and Impact), individual role permissions, and selected account feature options (such as Admin Analytics).

In the beta environment only, Admin Analytics and Course Analytics data is pulled from Canvas Data 2 (CD2)/Data Access Platform (DAP). All data will be migrated to CD2/DAP on August 1, 2024. You can migrate your data to CD2/DAP before August 1, 2024 by contacting your Customer Success Manager (CSM).
