   Note: While IntelliBoard is listed under the “Instructure Partner” choice, this will email us the keys directly and may delay setup over proceeding with the Institutional Use choice.

Note: Canvas Data 2 is a supplementary connection that replaces the Live Events service.  You will still need to connect flat files and data service for full Canvas reporting.
