Canvas Status

While Canvas maintains roughly a 99.8% uptime, there are times when the service becomes slow, unresponsive, or completely inaccessible. If there is a major outage, the Bryant community will be notified with a Bryant Alert email indicating an issue has been detected and when possible, it will include a description of the error.
