Authors can edit the license, version notes, title, description, tags, image, and sharing settings for their shared resources from Commons. To modify an existing shared resource, learn how to update a resource previously shared to Commons. Admins can also edit and remove shared account resources that are not private to the author.
Notes:
- To enable Commons in your Canvas instance, please contact your Customer Success Manager.
- Commons is available in all Free for Teacher (FFT) accounts. Free for Teacher users are limited to finding, importing, and sharing public resources.

Approve Content

You can edit resources uploaded by any user in your Commons account to mark the resource as approved content. You can also approve resources from the Commons search page, the Managed Resources tab on the Admin page, or when uploading a new resource.
To mark a resource as approved content, enable the Share as Account approved content option.
