VU Amsterdam Canvas LMS API is one of 7 APIs that [Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam](https://apis.io/providers/vrije-universiteit-amsterdam/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Learning Management, Canvas, Instructure, and Tenant Deployment. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Instructure Canvas deployed for VU Amsterdam at canvas.vu.nl. The Canvas REST API is live and credential-gated — GET /api/v1/accounts returns HTTP 401 with a JSON body — and the sign-in page renders. The contract is Instructure's and is catalogued against Instructure; recorded here only as the institution's learning-platform tenancy. Canvas's LTI certification is Instructure's, not VU's, and is deliberately not recorded as institutional conformance.
