Canvas@Illinois , Copying from a Development Space into a Registrar-affiliated Space
If you already have a Development space in Canvas and wish to copy its content into a Registrar-affiliated space, you will want to submit a request for a Registrar-affiliated space through the Space Request Application (SRA): go.illinois.edu/sra
During that request process, you'll be able to select any rosters that should be connected to the site; these requests are processed once a day (typically between 2-4pm).
This new course space will be blank by default, but you can quickly copy all of the content in your Development space to the new Registrar-affiliated space with the Course Import Tool: Canvas Community, How do I copy content from another Canvas course using the Course Import tool?
A video recording of this process can also be found here: Migrating Canvas Content
