Overview
Harmonize keeps track of all your discussion-related due dates across all of your courses using Harmonize with the To Do drawer, available in the top menu of most Harmonize pages. These events can also be synced to your Canvas Calendar and Canvas To Do list via the Calendar Sync function. This helps by providing additional reminders of upcoming due dates such as discussion milestones due ahead of the actual assignment due date. Follow the steps belong to enable this syncing.
