Embed or link in quizzes

[RobinNielson]

I thought I had found a work-around, but the videos corrupt...help.

I need to embed videos and/or clips into quizzes for my students. I was copying the links from 'pages' and pasting them into quiz instructions - which worked for a while - but now those videos links have been corrupting. 

Does anyone know a better way?  The embed feature is NOT available in quizzes.  HOW I WISH IT WAS!

Do you know if you are using New Quizzes or Classic Quizzes? In Classic Quizzes, you do have the embed feature, unless your institution has turned that off for some reason. Canvas has a guide that shows a way to insert course content without the specific "embed" tool which could be helpful if the videos are indeed in your course already. 

If you're using New Quizzes, they're having issues with the rich content editor, which allows embedding and the like, and are asking institutions to turn it off for now. So you might just be SOL for now 😔
