    How do I delete media in Canvas Studio?

    If necessary, you can delete a video or audio file from your collection in Arc.

    Deleting a video or audio file also removes all comments.

    Note: If you delete media from a course collection, the media will only be deleted from the course where you are deleting the media. The media will still exist in all other collections where the media exists.

  • You can upload video or audio files to your collection in Arc either through the Add button or by dragging and dropping into the My Collection page. Media can be uploaded from any page in your account. After a media file is uploaded, you can manage all controls and settings.

    You can bulk upload multiple specific media files at a time. The maximum file size for a media file upload is 10 GB. Learn more about supported file formats.

  • In Canvas, users can embed media from Arc in any feature area with the Rich Content Editor, including Assignments, Discussions, and Pages. Media is embedded using the Arc LTI tool. You can select existing media and also upload new media through the Arc LTI tool.

    When embedding media in Canvas, comments are enabled by default, but you can choose to disable comments. Regardless of comments, embedded media views are always included in analytics.

    Embedding Media in Assignments and Discussions

    If you are an instructor and embedding media in an assignment or a discussion, you may consider disabling comments. For graded assignments, inline comments are not a replacement for submissions and never display in SpeedGrader. For instance, when embedding media in a graded discussion, students could post inline comments, but to receive a grade, they would also have to post a reply to the graded discussion. The discussion reply would display in SpeedGrader for grading. However, comments could be enabled when embedding media in a No Submission or Not Graded assignment.

    Embedding Media as a Student

    If you are a student, media you embed into a Canvas course or group is created as a new copy owned by your instructor. When embedding media, you will not be able to edit any details, so you may want to confirm the name of your media before it is uploaded. Otherwise, you can contact your instructor to modify the details of your media.
