when I click the webcam button to start my assignment (I actually need to do a short video recording) the permissions button that pops up doesn't stay long enough for me to give the permission. It's almost like a flash.
Hello- Which web browser are you using? I would clear your browser data, reboot and try again with the current browser you have been using.
If it doesn't work after these steps- I would try to use the latest approved version of Firefox.
Good Luck!
An inconvenient workaround (just to get this assignment done) may be to record the video onto the computer or even using the phone and upload it instead of using the record feature. But ideally in the long term you'll want this issue resolved. I reiterate @RonCote's suggestions.

Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies.
