**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/university-of-sydney/canvas-lms/  
**Provider:** University of Sydney — https://apis.io/providers/university-of-sydney/  
**Documentation:** https://canvas.sydney.edu.au/

Canvas LMS (tenant) is one of 7 APIs that [University of Sydney](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-sydney/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Learning Management, Canvas, LMS, Tenant, and Vendor Contract.

canvas.sydney.edu.au is a vanity hostname on the university's own domain that CNAMEs to sydney-vanity.instructure.com, and it redirects unauthenticated visitors into the university's Okta tenant with a SAMLRequest. The learning-management contract, including the Canvas LMS REST API and its LTI tool registration, is Instructure's. The vanity hostname does not make it the university's engineering. Recorded as a tenant relationship; no Canvas specification has been saved under this slug.
