Canvas Integration

If available, instructors and students can access WebAssign assignments from Canvas™.

Features

Basic integration between Canvas and WebAssign provides automatic rostering of students and single sign-on to WebAssign from Canvas:

Students access WebAssign directly from Canvas and do not need to sign in to WebAssign separately.
When a student accesses WebAssign for the first time from Canvas, a new WebAssign account is automatically created and added to your WebAssign class roster.

Note:

Integration does not enable single sign-on to Canvas from WebAssign.
Students who drop the Canvas section are not dropped from the WebAssign section.
Students who transfer out of the Canvas section are not dropped from the WebAssign section.

For all LMS integrations:

Set up integration at the start of the term, and only for WebAssign course sections with no enrolled students.
Turn off self-enrollment for your WebAssign course.

If Canvas integration is not shown under LMS Integration on the Class Settings page, open a support case.

Note: Always follow your institution’s IT guidelines for requesting new external tools.
