Page Comparison

...

• Canvas only processes one import at a time.

• Draft State settings are retained in course imports. If an assignment is unpublished in a course when it was copied or exported, the assignment will also be unpublished in the content import.

• Mastery Paths conditional items are not retained in course imports, and paths must be re-created after the import is completed.

• Copying content retains any links or files associated with the content, such as in an assignment.

• When selecting assignments only, Canvas imports all assessment items within the Assignments page (including any associated quizzes and discussions). Assignments will remain in their assignment groups if an entire assignment group or all assignments are imported.

• Group sets do not copy as part of the import. Any existing group sets in the new course will be linked to the group set with the same name. However, if there are no group sets with the same name in the new course, the assignment will be linked to a new Project Groups set.

• When selecting individual assignments, assignments are placed in an assignment group called Imported Assignments. However, assignments can be moved into other assignment groups as necessary.

• Enrollment-related data, which includes course users, collaborations, conferences, groups, and sections, and feature preview settings are not included in course content imports.

• Announcements and Discussions do not retain the name of the user who originally created the course content. Additionally, students do not receive announcement notifications for imported announcements. However, a badge indicating a new announcement displays on the Card View and Recent Activity Dashboards.

• Assignments with a manual grade posting policy and anonymous assignments retain the manual grade posting policy and their anonymous settings as part of the course import.

• Calendar item locations (e.g., office hours slots with an assigned office location) are not included in course imports.

• Importing courses and course files count against course file quotas.
