# How do I use course settings?

Course Settings is where you can easily update and view course details, sections, navigation link options, external app configurations, feature options, and integrations.

Depending on your [permissions](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Admin-Guide/What-user-roles-and-permissions-are-available-in-Canvas/ta-p/102), you can edit differing levels of the course settings.
