Note: Delphinium is now installed, but disabled, in every course in your Canvas account. Use this tutorial to learn how to enable Delphinium in a course.

Step 5: Enable the Analytics API

Delphinium uses the Canvas Analytics API to get student page views and participations data.

Open this link: [YOUR CANVAS URL]/accounts/self/settings#tab-features

Find and enable the "New Analytics API Access" feature (see image to right).

Note: This feature is sometimes hidden by default. If you don't see it, you will need to open a case with your CSM who can enable it in your Canvas account.
