Instructions on Setting Up i>Clicker integration with Canvas

Note: You have to have the iClicker registration link set up first. If you have not done so, open your Canvas course, go to Settings on the main course menu (on the left side), click on the Navigation tab on the Setting page and drag i>clicker from the “items to hide” menu on the bottom to “Reorder” menu on the upper page. Refresh the page to see I>clicker on the course menu.

PART I: Setting up the iclicker desktop application

  1. Open the UAB Clicker folder
  2. Open iclicker

  1. Select “New”

  1. Create the course link (this is just a place holder for now).

  1. Choose the Course you just created

  1. Go to My Settings

  1. Click on the LMS/Reg tab

  1. Set the LMS to Canvas for the course and set your preferred in-class registration. Set for Course.
  1. Close i>Clicker.

PART II: Set up igrader.

  1. Open igrader
  1. Choose the course you just set.
  1. Click on Download Roster
  1. You should see the following window (may be hiding behind one of the windows. Move around to find it):
  1. Go back to your Canvas course. In the upper right corner select Settings (this is your systems settings, not the course settings you used earlier).
  1. We will need to set up an Authentication Token. Go to the bottom of the page and add a New Access Token to Approved Integrations
  1. Type in iClicker integration and click Generate Token
  1. Expand the window that comes up and copy the Token (this will not be saved where you can find it. Paste into a text file and save where you can easily find it again).
  1. Now paste that into the iclicker integrate window in box 2.
  1. Enter the course again and click on i>clicker on the course menu. Select i>clicker Security Key
  1. Create a security key, click submit, then copy it.
  1. Finally paste the Security key into the CMS integration window. Add your BlazerID to the Login. To save time in the future, check “Save my login credentials “ and “Automatically log me into my LMS”.
  1. Once you click Log In, you should get a re-start message and igrader will load your Canvas roster. You are now done with integration.
