Link Recording Files Stored in OneDrive to a Canvas Module

As a reminder, Zoom cloud recordings will only be available within Zoom for a period of 30 days. If you need to share a Zoom recording link with a Canvas course after this time frame has passed, you may first follow the previous steps to save the recording to your OneDrive account.  You may then proceed to post a link to the OneDrive file within your Canvas course for your students to access.

1. Click on the “+” icon to the right of a module to add a new module item.

2. Choose to add an “External Tool” from the drop-down list that appears.

3. An option will appear in this list for Office 365. Click on this option.

4. The files stored in your Columbia Issued OneDrive account will appear. You may first be prompted to sign into your Office 365 account within Canvas, if you have not already.

5. Choose the video file that you previously uploaded to OneDrive from the list that appears.

6. Click “Attach File.”

7. Confirm your selection by clicking “Add Item” to complete the process of adding a link to your recording file in OneDrive to a Canvas module.

8. The link to the file will now appear in your Canvas module. Make sure that it is published for students to be able to view.
