Questions and answers about integrations in Canvas
Right now, the integrations to MiunPlay/Kaltura, Zoom, Inspera Origninality (IO) in Canvas are suspended due to the data breach in Canvas. Learn more about how to use these services independently.
How about Zoom?
You can use Zoom as you normally would, including to record, but meetings need to be created from the app or Zoom on the web. Read more about how to book Zoom meetings online.
Then share Zoom links in Canvas in calendar events and/or as announcements.
What about videos?
Studio
Studio works as usual in Canvas. There you can also record new video. You can also embed videos on pages in Canvas, directly in the editor.
MiunPlay/Kaltura
MiunPlay/Kaltura works independently (accessed via play.miun.se) but not via the editor in Canvas. Via play.miun.se you can see any recordings from Zoom, make new recordings, etc.
If you want to share videos with the students, you publish your video as Unlisted and share a link to it in Canvas. Guide on how to make your video unlisted. (You must choose to make the video Unlisted, or students won't see it.)
What do I do with plagiarism checking/text matching?
Inspera Originality (IO) can be used standalone, so you can still check submissions with IO.
