Canvas Roles Permissions

Last modified 11/8/2024

When adding a participant (user) to your Canvas course, you will be asked to assign that user a role. There are several roles available in Illinois State's instance of Canvas, and each role has different permissions. This table lists the roles and the permissions associated with each. A green check mark indicates that the permission is enabled, while a red X indicates that the permission is disabled.

To learn how to change participant roles, please consult this help guide.
