HI all!Did someone try to add a Javascript snippet to their Canvas page? If so, can you share how you did it? I'm trying to implement Intercom on my Canvas page. Thanks! Tom
Hi @TomPesach,
I believe the only really supported way of including Javascript/CSS in Canvas is through the Theme Editor, which is something your Canvas administrative team (usually located in the IT / eLearning / Digital Education areas) would need to do for you and would affect all courses in a particular account/subaccount. On that note, I am a Canvas admin for a higher-ed institution, and I can tell you that we are very hesitant to add code to the the global javascript files. It may be different at your school/institution, but the work required to maintain the files and the risks if they break are pretty big barriers.
Hope this helps answer your question a bit, even if it's not the answer you were hoping for.

I recently had an exam provided as a Canvas Quiz in my class, and used some questions copied from question banks from other sections and prior years of the course. Some of those questions had "General Answer Comment" text already saved in them. I changed that text in several questions as I updated/changed the questions.…
I would like to suggest improvements to how collaborations function within Canvas LMS. Currently, collaborations are somewhat limited in how they can be accessed and integrated into course content. One potential improvement would be allowing collaborations to be directly linkable within Pages and Modules. This would make…
We are using the Learning Mastery Gradebook with an rubric on account-level. When we enter the gradebook, the sorting does not make any sense. How can we make the sorting so it makes sense to us. It feels like a randam sorting.
