Langsly

How do I connect Canvas to Langsly?

Paste a Canvas access token in the Canvas LMS card under Profile > Settings, then link a class to a Canvas course to import its roster and send lesson scores to the Canvas gradebook.

How to do it

  1. In Canvas, open Account > Settings, scroll to Approved Integrations, and choose New Access Token. Name it Langsly, choose Generate Token, and copy it; Canvas shows it only once.
  2. In Langsly, open Profile > Settings. In the Canvas LMS card, enter your Canvas address (for example yourschool.instructure.com) and paste the Access token.
  3. Select Connect Canvas. The card confirms the account and Canvas address you are connected to.
  4. Create or edit a class and pick a course in the Canvas course field.
  5. On the class student list, select Import from Canvas to enroll students whose Langsly email matches their Canvas email.

Frequently asked questions

Does Langsly create accounts for my Canvas students?
No. Langsly never creates accounts from a roster. Students sign up themselves, then join the class.
What happens in Canvas when I assign a lesson?
Langsly creates a 100-point Canvas assignment with a link to the lesson, and the lesson score is sent to the Canvas gradebook.
My token stopped working. What now?
Create a new token in Canvas, select Reconnect Canvas, and paste it.
