Canvas LMS (U-M tenancy on Instructure)

aid: university-of-michigan-ann-arbor:canvas-lms
name: Canvas LMS (U-M tenancy on Instructure)
x-operator: tenant
x-operator-evidence: umich.instructure.com is a U-M-specific account on Instructure's platform, not a
  U-M host. GET /api/v1/accounts returns 401 with Canvas's own error envelope ({"status":"unauthenticated"})
  and /login returns 200 titled "U-M Canvas Login". A nonsense tenant on the same platform (zzznotarealtenant.instructure.com)
  returns 404, so the U-M tenancy is real and not a wildcard artefact.
description: The University of Michigan's Canvas learning management system tenancy. The courses, the
  enrollments and the data are U-M's; the API contract is Instructure's, published once for every Canvas
  customer, and it is deliberately NOT stored in this repo. This entry records the relationship — which
  is a real institutional fact and one of U-M's few programmable surfaces — without crediting U-M with
  Instructure's engineering. Score the contract against Instructure.
