Features & Capabilities

Adding Courses To load all courses by default, visit https://<yourschool>.instructure.com/courses and press the "Add All to Sidebar" button. This will load the IDs, titles, and colors from this page. This will not overwrite any existing configured courses. You can also add courses manually using the "Add" button in the extension window

Editing Courses Courses have three properties:

Name - This is what will appear in the sidebar, it's best to be concise
ID - This is what determines the link for the button, it can be found at the end of the URL for the course's homepage (https://<yourschool>.instructure.com/courses/<courseid>)
Color - If the "Color Sidebar" setting is enabled, this will be the color that the sidebar is set to when the course is active

These will automatically save whenever they're updated, and you should see the changes reflected when you reload your Canvas page

Is Canvas Course Sidebar Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Canvas Course Sidebar requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Canvas Course Sidebar is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
