This article is for faculty and shows the process for activating sync between Microsoft Teams and Canvas. This will allow the creation of a Team for Canvas courses and keeps its member list in sync with the Canvas roster.

Part I - Install Teams for Classes

If Microsoft Teams for Classes does not exist in your course, please contact CAI/OTC Online (online@otc.edu) for instructions.

Part II - Enable Microsoft Teams for your Course

 Enable Microsoft Teams for your Course

If you would like to enable Microsoft Teams for your course:

  1. Open the settings page in your Canvas course.

  2. Select the Integrations tab.

  3. Enable Microsoft Sync via the toggle button.

  4. Click Sync Now.

  5. After a minute or two, your classroom Team will auto-create in Microsoft Teams for classes. If you have the Teams desktop app open, you will see this pop-up:

  6. Back in Canvas, open your Navigation tab and then drag the Microsoft Teams link into your course navigation links, then click save:

    TeamsMove.mp4

  7. Select the link to launch the app.

  8. When you have set up your Teams channel the way you want it to appear and are ready to accept students into the channel, click activate within the top banner in Microsoft Teams.

Note: This Team may be manually removed once it is no longer needed, otherwise it will expire after one year.


Note for Live Online Classes

 LVL Classes in Teams

If you are teaching a Live Online class with remote site rooms that don’t yet have full Live Online equipment installed, you will need to invite the remote site service accounts into your classroom Team so the SLIM Monitors can start the meeting at the remote locations.

If you’re scheduling a meeting, please spell out the account name (e.g. “Republic Education Classroom 1” ). You can only use the username when inviting from inside a meeting.

For additional questions what accounts to invite, please contact the Administrative Assistant to the President for Education Centers (as of this writing, Dusti McCleary).
