Integrate iMIS with Canvas and the ATS Canvas Bridge

The Learning Platform That Amplifies Your Awesomeness.

Educators are powerful people doing important, life-changing things. Canvas doesn't get in the way of that—it just makes those important, life-changing things easier to do and easier to spread around.

The Bridge to Big Benefits

By integrating iMIS and Canvas via the ATS Bridge, you can optimize the value of your data to enhance member engagement and increase revenue. When implementation by ATS and your staff is complete, these are some of the features your users will have:

  • Single sign-on to give members a seamless user experience between Canvas and iMIS using SAML
  • Take orders for Canvas products in iMIS, and automatically send the order to the Canvas platform
  • Write course completion data back to the member's record in iMIS ,including completion date, credit hours, credit hour type, and score

What ATS Provides

  • An ipart that gets put on your confirmation page to send information about the user and purchase to Canvas
  • A SAML SSO that allows your students/members to login with their iMIS login
  • A scheduled job that will sync records and return completion data to iMIS once the course is completed

Key Features

  • Create users in Canvas
  • Push purchases from iMIS to Canvas
  • Push enrollments to Canvas based on an IQA
  • Single sign-on
  • Retrieve completion data from Canvas and save in iMIS

Supported Use Cases

  • Course access can be purchased in iMIS as a product, event, or subscription. Upon successful checkout, course registrations are pushed to Canvas.
  • If you have registrations that don’t originate in iMIS, or need to be approved before being sent to Canvas, you can enroll learners in Canvas through the use of an IQA that can be based on any data in iMIS, including authorization from another module of iMIS Bridge.
  • Once registered for a course through an automatic registration or through an IQA, registrants access their course(s) via a single sign-on application using their iMIS credentials.
  • Once a user completes a course and it is graded, completion will be written back to iMIS including the final grade and final score.
  • If you have a use case that is not listed or would like additional information, please Contact ATS.

Easy Does It: Integration Made Simple

The ATS methodology for bridges uses the iMIS API's to achieve the results you expect from a world-class integration. We work closely with third-party partners to use their API's in the most efficient manner. We pride ourselves on building integrations that work on many versions of iMIS. This means that when you upgrade iMIS the bridges will continue to work without having to be rewritten.

The results of this methodology include:

  • Compatibility with all versions of iMIS (unless otherwise noted) using the appropriate iMIS API's that work best with your version of iMIS.
  • The flexibility of on-premise or hosted models for the software.
  • Easy set-up and one-time configuration including installation services from ATS.
