The Account Settings page enables administrators to manage their account, including updating credentials and configuring multi-factor authentication.
The Account Settings page features three tabs:
- Account Details
- Password
- Security
1. Account Details
In the Account Details tab, administrators can view general information associated with their account, such as their first name, last name, and email address. Additionally, administrators can also link their Canvas account to Inspera Originality directly from the Account Details tab.
Link Canvas Account
To link Inspera Originality to Canvas, administrators must enter the corresponding Canvas account email and click Link Account. After doing so a confirmation email will be sent to the administrator to finalize the account linking process.
To locate your email address in Canvas, please follow the steps outlined below.
Navigate to Account > Settings.
This is where the email for your Canvas account is available.
After navigating to the Settings page in Canvas, your account email will be available in the upper right-hand corner of the screen.
2. Password Settings
In the Password Settings tab, administrators can update their account password by entering their current password, followed by a new password and its confirmation.
3. Security
In the Security tab, administrators can enable multi-factor authentication for their account. Once enabled, they can choose to receive a verification code via email or use an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator. By default, the authentication method is set to email.
Additionally, the Security tab provides a set of one-time use account recovery codes that can be downloaded. After all codes have been used, administrators can generate a new set directly from the interface.
4. Test environment label
When an institution is using Inspera Originality in a testing phase, a “Testing Environment” label is displayed above the account name. This label clearly indicates that the platform is being accessed in a non-production environment, helping users distinguish test activities from live institutional workflows.
The label remains visible throughout the interface to reduce confusion and ensure that submissions, reports, and actions performed during testing are recognized as part of the evaluation setup.
