Follow Clever’s Rostering applications with
AnySchool guide to choose a
data source, send the roster, and set up Canvas SSO.Two Type the Word notes while you are in that guide:
Do not skip “Set up SSO”. Select “Canvas” even if the step is marked
“Optional”. Teachers and students should sign in from Canvas.
If your SIS is not listed, prefer “SFTP Directory” so roster updates can
land automatically. Use “CSV upload” only for a one-time import. Clever
documents SFTP in How to set up AnySchool SFTP
uploads.
After you finish AnySchool, wait for the “Type the Words CSV Sync Report”
email from Type the Word. Confirm “Your upload was successful!” and that
the student, teacher, section, school, and staff counts match your roster.
1 is the success line. 2 is the counts to check against your roster.
If the email lists errors, select “Download error report”, fix those rows,
and upload again.
Nice work. Type the Word has access to your roster. Teachers and students
can already log in with Canvas. Email Josh Wootonn at
josh@typetheword.com and ask him to send
the “Instant Login Link” so you can test that.There is one more step. To let Type the Word manage your assignments and
grades in Canvas, set up LMS Connect.
