Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention.
Apologies for the delay as we currently have a high volume of tickets here in our support forums.
Yes, the canonical is added/active from the image you have shared.
Rank Math, by default, automatically adds a self-referencing canonical URL (gray text) to your site if they are set to index. So, you won’t need to fill/add the canonical URL there.
Please note that the canonical box’s purpose would be to inform search engines that it is a duplicate page and should not be indexed.
Here’s a link for more explanation on its usage:

Hope that helps.
Thank you.
