How do I add users to a course and in a corse

Assuming you are in instructor, click into the Canvas course. Click on "people" on the right side of the page. Click on the blue box in the top right that says "+ People." Seect one of the 3 options: Email Address, Login ID, or SIS ID. Enter the users to add. I add one at a time. Select their role and click "Next." If you get an error, go back and try one of the other options. I dont' know why, but sometimes one Email Address works, while other times only Login ID or SIS ID works.

Hi @Huddie,

If the info provided by @RecycledElectro doesn't work for you, your school/institution may exclusively handle enrollments via their student information system.  This is how my university operates, where teachers cannot manually add or remove any users to their official Canvas courses.  Just wanted to throw this extra bit of info out to you in case you're in the same scenario as our teachers.
