They are canon up until something in the show directly contradicts them. For example, FIENDship is Magic #3 establishes Star Swirl exiling the Sirens from Equestria alone using the Equestria Girls magic mirror after failing to defeat them in a series of musically themed battles. The Shadow Play episodes came back and said that Star Swirl worked with the other Pillars of Old Equestria to banish them and used a spell to open a portal, not a magic mirror.
