TidyUp
TidyUP is a content cleanup tool for Canvas courses that provides a quick way to view all of the content in your course and clean out anything that is no longer needed. Identifying and deleting extra files, folders, pages, or assignments that are no longer used makes your course easier to manage and more usable for everyone!
Cidi Lab's - TidyUp has been added to Cal Poly Canvas to help faculty clean up OLD/Unused files from Canvas and also improve Accessibility Scores. This can be very helpful for faculty who have reused courses by copying course content into new courses.

FIRST - make sure to Download Selected (all) files to your computer so you can always access them if needed after you delete them from your course. These can be saved on OneDrive.
Quiz Images in Question Banks
Since you may have images (not used) that are in your Question Bank, but not in a current quiz...create a Quiz using ALL the Question Banks so those images are considered USED. Set the quiz as Unpublished so it will not count in the grades.
Other files - not published
You may have files in your course you only use if needed - like a support page for students falling behind. You can rename those files with "Study" or "Help" in the file name so you can easily see the files before you delete them.
