Hello,

I don't see any attendance icon in my Canvas where should I find it?

Thanks

Good afternoon, @NazaninKhavari ...

Assuming that you are an instructor, you can enable the "Attendance" course navigation button in each of your courses by following the instructions listed in this Guide:

How do I manage Course Navigation links?

Please let Community members know if we can be of further help...thanks!

I am having this same issue but I am not finding the attendance button. Any thoughts?

Hi @ColbyHunt ...

To be sure, in your course, are you going to your "Settings" menu on the left-hand side of your course navigation, and then clicking on your "Navigation" tab?  The "Attendance" button should be listed there which you can enable in your course.  If the "Attendance" button cannot be enabled, I wonder if your school Canvas administrator(s) somehow disabled/hid that button from you and your colleagues so that you cannot use it?  Might be worth a conversation at your school.

Hope this helps.  Looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

I have enabled the attendance button, but I don't see it show up anywhere.

When you went to your course "Settings" >> "Navigation" tab, and enabled the "Attendance" button in your course, did you make sure to also click the "Save" button at the bottom of the page?  Your "Attendance" button should appear along the left-hand side course navigation menu...unless your school's Canvas administrator(s) somehow disabled that button from appearing within your Canvas course(s).  You might want to check with those folks to see if they can help you further.
