Submitting a video in a Canvas assignment or Discussion is not difficult, but it's helpful to think of the process as consisting of two parts:

In this tutorial, we'll assume that you are already familiar with recording and uploading using Panopto.

To embed a recording in a Canvas assignment, you'll first click the "Submit Assignment" button in the top right-hand corner of the page.
(Note that for a Canvas Discussion you'll click "Reply", rather than "Submit Assignment" to begin the process.)
In the rich text editor that appears on the page, click the "App" icon to reveal the Course Video () selection tool.
There are three tabs in the Panopto selection tool: "Choose", "Upload" and "Record".
- Select Choose if you have already recorded and uploaded your video.
- Select Upload if you wish to upload a recording that is saved on your computer.
- Select Record to use the Panopto Desktop Recorder app to make and upload a recording all at once.
(For this tutorial, we will assume that the recording was previously uploaded to Panopto, so we'll use the "Choose" tab.)
Locate and select your recording from the list that appears. If necessary, use the drop down menu to navigate to where your video is located.
Now, click the "Insert" button found at the bottom-right corner of the page.
In a moment, your video will appear inside of the text editor.
Finally, click the "Submit Assignment" button and you're done!
