Implementation Details

This document provides technical details on how the integration between Canvas and Edlink works.

Data Mapping

All sections in Canvas become classes in Edlink. The courses become courses in Edlink.

Canvas Scopes

Edlink uses the Canvas GraphQL API to sync efficiently with Canvas. However if scopes are enabled the GraphQL becomes inaccessible. This can result in long delays when syncing data. It is recommended not to enabled scopes for the Edlink integration.
