Under the Apps tab, make sure that the Copyleaks App is NOT disabled.
We recommend logging in as a Student or Instructor as opposed to viewing the reports from the admin perspective while testing.
Important Information
• As Canvas may not immediately notify Copyleaks that the student submission has been created, we suggest waiting up to 90 seconds before clicking on the resubmit button. This will allow Canvas to notify us that the assignment has been created.
• If a student uploads multiple versions of a document to the same assignment we will NOT compare to that student's previous submissions. For example, if a student uploads Version 1, Version 2, and Version 3 of a document, we will NOT scan Version 3 against Version 1 and Version 2. However, if the student has uploaded this document to a different assignment, it will be compared. For example, if the assignment is uploaded to English 101 and History 101 we will compare the two against one another.
• When Duplicating / Importing / Copying an assignment, the assignment Copyleaks configuration settings will NOT be copied into the new assignment.
• Deleting the registration from the Copyleaks dashboard will shut down the tool and will automatically be deleted after 2 months. This action can be cancelled on the registration management page.
• For ease in identifying the origin of copied content in cases of internal cheating we recommend enabling the Show student information in results setting. When enabled, instructors and admins will now have the ability to quickly and clearly see in the results of the report:
1. The date & time of submission for the detected result.
2. The user (via their email or username) who submitted the detected result.
See the screenshot below for an example of what this will look like on a similarity report.
