The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
I have been uploading pages to Canvas for assignments, but all of a sudden, I get this message:
"File upload failed" with a red box. I am doing everything the same. What's going on?
I use the "imbed image" feature to get to pages I have scanned and that are downloaded in my computer files as "pictures".
A couple of things to look at:
1. Have you reached your course storage quota. Look in the Files of the course and check the % of GB used area. IF you are at 100% or over it will not let you upload.
2. How large are the files you are uploading? If they are very large, the browser might be timing out on you.
