How do I create an SIS support case in the Field Admin Console?

If you use an Instructure-managed SIS integration, you can create an SIS support case from the Field Admin Console. You can select to escalate SIS support cases to the SIS support team while creating a case. You can also escalate an existing support case to the SIS support team.

For non-SIS related issues, please submit a Canvas support case.

Notes: 

  • Field Admin Console features vary based on account and user settings. Based on the permissions for your role, you may not be able to view or create SIS support cases.
  • SIS escalated cases are not subject to Targeted Initial Responses or Service Level Agreements. If further attention is needed on your case, please contact your Customer Success Manager (CSM).
