How do I sync course data in Canvas with Microsoft Teams?
If enabled by your institution, you can sync course data from the People page in your Canvas course to Microsoft Teams.
Notes:
- If the Microsoft Teams integration does not display in your Course Settings, it has not been enabled by your institution.
- When enrollments changes are made in a course that has enabled Microsoft Sync, it may take up to 10 minutes for those changes to sync to Microsoft Teams.
- For the Microsoft Teams sync to work properly, there must be a user with the Teacher, TA, and/or Designer role in Canvas matching an Owner in Teams.
Sync Course Data

Once the integration is enabled, a sync to Microsoft Teams will be triggered automatically by any changes to course enrollments. The first time you enabled Microsoft Sync, you may want to trigger a manual sync to ensure all course data is synced with Microsoft Teams.
To view Microsoft Sync details, click the Expand icon [1]. To sync course data with Microsoft Teams, click the Sync Now button [2].
You can also view the sync status [3], date of last sync [4], and any sync errors [5].
Note: When enrollments changes are made in a course that has enabled Microsoft Sync, it may take up to 10 minutes for those changes to sync to Microsoft Teams.
