Folio for Canvas

Keeps a folder for each of your Canvas courses up to date with new course files.

Pick a folder for each of your Canvas courses. From then on, whenever you open Canvas, new lecture slides, readings, and handouts are saved into it, organized into subfolders that match the course's modules. Put the folders in iCloud Drive or Google Drive and your course files show up on your iPad and other devices. Keep them together to use with NotebookLM, Claude, or any other study tool. How it works • Uses your normal Canvas login. No passwords, tokens, or accounts to set up. • Finds files even when an instructor hides the Files tab, by looking through modules, pages, assignments, announcements, and the syllabus. • Saves documents only (PDFs, slides, Word and Excel files, notebooks, and similar), not the decorative images on course pages. • The toolbar button shows whether it's checking, when it last checked, and what arrived recently. What it never does • It never changes or deletes anything already in your folders. If a file with the same name is already there, it is left alone. • If an instructor posts a revised version of a file, the new version is saved beside the original as "Name (revised date)". • It never sends your files or course information anywhere. Everything happens between your browser, Canvas, and your own computer. Works with any school's Canvas at an instructure.com address. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Instructure.
