google and canvas

[javiencolorado]

I am able to connect and "authorize" google and canvas via settings and "other services". However, I still don't see my google drive when I attempt to search for files. Only my computer files show.

Hi there, @javiencolorado ...

I'm not sure what role you have at your school, but according to these Guides:

• How do I connect to Google Drive as a web service in Canvas as a student?
• How do I connect to Google Drive as a web service in Canvas as an instructor?

..."All users can authorize their Google Drive accounts for access to Google collaborations and assignment uploads."  Further, "For any of your courses, if the Course Navigation Menu includes a Google Drive link, your institution has enabled a global Google Drive integration. You do not need to enable Google Drive as a web service."  To determine if your school has integrated the Google Drive LTI external app with your school's Canvas environment, you would need to reach out to your school's local Canvas administrator or someone from your school's Online Learning/eLearning department.

I hope this will be of some help to you.  Please let Community members know if you have any other questions about this...thanks!  Take care, stay safe, and be well.
