UW Canvas service restored
UW Canvas access has been restored to UW users following a UWIT and independent security assessment.
At this time, we have no evidence that UW NetID passwords were exposed, but out of an abundance of caution, UWIT recommends all UW Canvas users change their password. For password resets, please go to identity.uw.edu/account/resetpassword.
Access to other systems and tools typically accessed through Canvas, including Parchment, Panopto, and Jupyter Notebooks, is also being restored.
If your Canvas course uses other apps, such as Panopto or Office 365, you may be prompted to re-authorize access to each app for your account. This is expected; please authorize if prompted.
UW users have not had access to Canvas since the outage began around 1 p.m. on Thursday.
UWIT will post any future updates at the UW Canvas incident webpage and the UWIT’s Service Status website — where you can subscribe to receive email updates and the UW. Instructure has also posted information about the incident on its website.
This is the emergency page for the University of Washington Bothell. During an incident, information will be available here. Cascadia College students, faculty and staff please proceed to the Cascadia College emergency page for campus-specific information.

The UW Alert system provides current information on campus closures and delays due to inclement weather and emergency situations. Messages are delivered simultaneously to UW Bothell and Cascadia College. Faculty and staff must “opt-in” to this service — you won’t receive messages if you haven’t signed up.
