Download or export class roster/list
There a few ways to export your class roster, depending on the information you require.
NUS Tools
Use this method unless you intend to upload Grades or create Groups.
NUS Tools (People) displays your class roster/list. The enrolled students' information can be exported to a spreadsheet or PDF.
The information includes:

SIS ID (same as Login ID for NUS students)
Section(s)
Role
Student Number (Matriculation number)
Email (actual NUS-ID email, not friendly-mail alias)
Academic Programme
Faculty
Admit Term
These columns are not displayed in NUS Tools (People), but the information can be exported:
Display Name

Friendly-mail aliases and subjects taken are not available in Canvas.
Grades export
Use this method to get the class roster template to import Grades to your course.
To export the class roster, click Grades on the left-hand navigation menu of your course.
Click Export on the top right, then Export Current Gradebook View or Export Entire Gradebook.
This produces a csv file which includes:
