How do I download assignment submissions from all my courses?

Created by Dee Woodard, Modified on Mon, 3 Jun at 8:27 AM by Dee Woodard

As a student, you can download all your assignment submissions in Canvas. Submissions are for both current and concluded courses and only includes any files that were submitted to fulfill an assignment; they do not include any submissions modified by instructors, such as annotated submissions.

The download also includes submissions for group assignments, even if the submission was made by another student in your group.

When the export has finished generating, submissions are downloaded as a ZIP file.
