This document provides some basic information about the centrally supported file clean up assistant TidyUp, including tips on how to get started using the tool.

 

 

What is TidyUp?

TidyUp is a file clean up tool integrated in Canvas. Instructors and course designers can use it to scan an entire Canvas course to identify and remove unused files and pages.

Please see the UW-Madison’s TidyUp IT service page for basic information about features and support.

Getting Started

For instructions on how to get started with TidyUp, see TidyUP - Getting Started [UW-Madison] from the Learn@UW KnowledgeBase.

Tool Functionality Details

Find and Remove Unused Files: TidyUp scans your courses and finds files that are not used in the course. This means that the file is not linked inside of pages or modules.

Use Cases

Using TidyUp with the UDOIT Accessibility Checker can help eliminate extra work. By running TidyUp before UDOIT, you can identify unused files and remove them from the course. Once they are removed, they do not need to be remediated.
