I have a new student in my Canvas course. How do I sync my CommonLit class with my Canvas to add students to my class?

This article is intended only for customers and partners using Canvas. Our Canvas integration is available for schools and districts who purchase a School Essentials PRO package.


To add new students to your Canvas class on CommonLit, go to your Manage Classes page and press the light grey sync button for your Canvas class. Syncing will automatically create their CommonLit student account (if they do not yet have one) and add them to your class.




Note: Syncing will add NEW students to your CommonLit class AND remove students who are no longer in your Canvas course.
