Grades Pass Back Quick Q&A
Why does my employees have to do to get Canvas Grades Passback to work?
1. Make sure that you put SS- in front of assignment titles and remove any quotes, backslashes, emojis, or special characters from them.
2. Check that your titles are no greater than 128 characters and that all assignments have due dates.
3. Assure all assignments have a grade between 0 and 100 and have associated section ID’s.
4. Finally scan over your assignments and see if they are in an active unlocked term and match your schools assignment types.
How Long Can Grades Take to Pass from Canvas to Sam?
Canvas Grades Passback can take anywhere from 24 to 72 hours. Currently Canvas is working on Canvas Data 2 (scheduled to release 2023) that will cut this time down to less than 24 hours per sync.
Can I roster through another system like Clever?
No, for Grades Pass Back 2.0 to work you are required to roster through the DDI SAM to Datasense Integration starting during the summer before the start of a new school year. This is to assure that we can accurately match: students, sections, grades, and enrollments.
How long can the process take to set up?
Central Access suggests letting us know as soon as you are interested in setting up a Grades Pass Back 2.0 flow. Due to the contraints of Canvas, the District, and Development time we usually estimate around 2-3 weeks for a full setup to be created. Afterwards this system becomes automated and is simply turned off and back on at the start of each school year.
What if I don't see grades importing?
Don't worry, Central Access and District Data Integrator offer superb support and are willing to assist you in any way we can. Simply put in a ticket with us and we will check to see what if any failures are occuring along the way. Additionally, as Central Access is partnered with Instructure, you can simply add: SamDev@centralaccess.net as a section and grade accessible admin into your canvas instance, let us know, and we can begin investigating as soon as possible!
