How to Link Your Canvas Courses to ConexED

This article applies to the following role permissions: ConexED Administrator - Department Director - Group Manager - Faculty/Staff

With our Canvas LTI, staff members and students can seamlessly access ConexED directly from their Canvas account, providing easy and convenient communication and collaboration opportunities. In order to access ConexED through Canvas and see your Canvas courses listed under the "My Courses" tab on ConexED, staff members and students must grant permission for ConexED to connect to their Canvas account for each course they are enrolled in. To grant permission, simply click on the designated ConexED link that is located in either the left-hand navigation menu or within a course module*:

You will only need to authorize access for each Canvas course once. Once you have authorized a course, clicking the ConexED link again in Canvas will automatically redirect you to your ConexED account.  If you don't see the course appearing under the "My Courses" tab after authorizing access from your Canvas course, simply log out of your account and log back in to make the newly authorized course visible in ConexED.
