Canvas.

Instructure Canvas, brought into your Aluma timeline.

// OVERVIEW

Canvas is the LMS most US universities and many districts run on. The connector talks to Canvas with a personal access token you generate in Canvas, and pulls assignments, quizzes, discussions and announcements into the same unified Aluma task list.
