Hi everybody,

I want to use Woocommerce (wordpress plugin) for selling courses, existing in Canvas LMS?


I want to ask if there is a way to connect Canvas LMS platform with Wordpress?

Any help, please?


Thank you in advance.

I think it's feasible to set up WordPress and Canvas side-by-side, and then create a custom WordPress plugin (or modify the Woocommerce plugin, though I'm not familiar with it) to send API calls to the Canvas instance in order to process enrollments and user accounts. You could have the plugin either process users and enrollments in bulk, using the SIS Imports API, or individually, using the Users and Enrollments APIs.

Alternatively, if Woocommerce produces CSV data about the enrollments, you could potentially modify that data to match Canvas's CSV format and manually upload it into Canvas.

Hi, were you able to come up with a solution for this? I'm looking to do the exact same thing!
