Updated on

Red Canvas logo with red Instructure graphic

Some integrations such as RedShelf and BryteWare within Canvas require use of the official Alamo Colleges District email address as the default address.  Other email addresses and contact methods can be added for continued notifications and alerts.

To access your email address, click on your account [1] and Settings [2].

Click on Account in the global navigation then click on Settings

You can tell what email address is your default by the star icon next to the email address.  Your Alamo Colleges District email account (@student.alamo.edu or @alamo.edu) will need to remain the default email address within Canvas. To choose a new default email address, hover over the email address and a faint star icon will appear. Click the star icon.  If your Alamo Colleges District email account has been removed, click on +Email Address and verify it.
