Grades & sync

Exporting grades to CSV

Per-question scores in a spreadsheet, whenever you need them.

Beyond posting to Canvas, you can export an assignment's grades as a CSV for your own records, departmental reporting, or any external gradebook.

What the export contains

One row per student, with a column for the total and a column per scored question in outline order. Multi-part questions appear according to their scoring mode: pooled questions export as one column owned by the parent, per-part questions export one column per part.

How to export

Export from the assignment's grades or submissions view. The CSV downloads immediately and reflects grading as of that moment.

Notes

  • Exports are snapshots. Regrade later, export again.
  • Ungraded questions appear empty rather than as zero, so partial exports mid-grading stay honest.
