Users in Canvas

Adding & Dropping Students

Canvas pulls all course membership from CAESAR enrollment information. If a student adds or drops your class, you will need to wait for the information to be updated in CAESAR, which can then take up to 24 hours to sync with Canvas (Monday-Friday).

Roles in Canvas

There are a number of different roles in Canvas, even outside of Teacher, TA, and Student. These roles include "Support", "Observer", and "Grader". For a list of all possible roles, and detailed information about the permissions granted to each, please click here.

Adding Guests or Observers

If you would like a user not already enrolled in your course to be able to access course content, please contact us. Only users with Net IDs can be added to Canvas. You can request a guest Net ID here.
