Are you wondering about what you can do I Canvas or are you stuck? Canvas has a rich amount of documentations and guides:
As a student at OsloMet you have access to Canvas until you either complete your programme or end your studies for other reasons. Your studies are regarded as completed when you receive your Diploma and/or transcript of records. This is done on the same day or a few days after the results of your final exam is published. At this time you will get status completed, and will no longer have access to Canvas.
If you wish to keep material that's stored in Canvas you must therefore do this before you are registered as completed / ended.
