Canvas: Users - How to add, edit and remove access
Navigate to the People page on your site.
To add a new user:
- Click “+ Add user” button at the top of the page.
- Fill out the required fields and click “Create new account.”
To edit an existing user:
- Find the correct username on the People page and click on “Edit” under “Operation”.
- Make appropriate adjustments and click “Create new account”.
To remove access an existing user:
Note: While it is possible to delete a user, we do not recommend doing so as any content associated with this person is tied to his/her name. Deleting a user will update his/her name to “Anonymous.” Auditors tend to not like to see “Anonymous” users on a website.
- To remove access to a user, find the correct username on the People page and click on “Edit” under “Operation.”
- On the next page, update the “Status” from “Active” to “Blocked.”
- Scroll to the bottom and "Save".
