Teams Meeting Integration
The MyCanvas/Teams integration allows you, as a Teacher of a MyCanvas course, to create a Teams Meeting link using a perpetual link in the Rich Content Editor (RCE) with the Add App function, serving as the sole entry point for learners to access the meeting.
Enabling and Scheduling Teams Meetings in MyCanvas
To enable a Teams Meeting link, edit an existing or new Announcement, Discussion, or Page, and click the Plugins/App button in the RCE toolbar.
- In an existing or a new Announcement, Discussion, or Page, etc., choose Edit and click/press on the Plugins/App button on the Rich Content Editor’s toolbar.
- If your screen width does not allow the full Editor toolbar to be displayed, you will find the function under the 3 dots (More...).
- This will display a list of plugins. Select Microsoft Teams Meetings.
- If you’ve not yet signed in to Teams, you’ll be directed to the College sign-in page. Enter your Mohawk credentials, and click/press Sign In.
- You will now be able to create the link to your meeting. Click/press Create Meeting Link.
- Choose a descriptive name, as it will serve as the link and meeting name itself. The meeting's date and time are not restrictive and are not required.
- Click/press the Create button
- Click/press the Copy button to add the meeting link to your Announcement, Page, or Discussion.
- Click/press Save at the bottom right of your screen.
