[ARCHIVED] Canvas has stopped allowing access to my Wamap assignments. How do I make the links secure?

[leo_spizzirri1]

I'm using WAMAP in a Canvas course. I've used the same content for many quarters (I copied this content to my course this quarter, as usual). However, when I try to access some of the Wamap assignments, I get this message:

This launch was made insecurely (using http instead of https). WAMAP requires secure launches to protect student data. Please update the links or tool in the LMS to use https (aka SSL).

I'm not sure how to change the links, as they were set up long ago, and done with the Wamap app in Canvas. 

Thanks!

Hi,  @leo_spizzirri1 . The short answer is that you can try to edit the link and replace "http://" with "https://". There are actually a couple of different specific answers depending on a few variables. Where are these links? Are they in within a content item (page, assignment description, quiz description, etc.), a module item, or something else? If they are within a content item when you edit the item, what does your editing toolbar look like? We are currently transitioning to a new Rich Content Editor (RCE) so I am not sure which version of the RCE you are using.
