Overview
TidyUp, a file-scanning tool for Canvas, gives instructors a full view to quickly clean up files, folders, and Canvas content, including pages, assignments, discussions, and quizzes. This tool helps declutter content that has accumulated over time, which in turn affects a course’s Ally Accessibility score. This guide provides an overview of TidyUp’s key features and offers practical resources to help you get started today.
Key Features of TidyUp:
- Scan Courses: Quickly scan a course’s content to identify files, folders, and other Canvas content that is unused or in use.
- Organize: Sort, filter, move, rename, or delete selected files, folders, and Canvas content all in one place.
- Delete: Delete multiple unused, unpublished, outdated, or duplicate files, folders, and Canvas content.
How to Integrate TidyUp into Your Course
Note: Deleted files, pages, and other content are permanently removed and cannot be recovered. Before deleting content, we strongly recommend using TidyUP in a development shell and leveraging the built-in download feature to back up any unused files.
To get started with TidyUP, review the following how-to guides and video tutorials to learn how to run your first scan and identify unused content.
