Hello,
I am trying to find a way to put a downloaded link from an eBook on to a page? The link cannot be edited and I am trying to see how I can move it onto a page instead of it sitting in the Modules.
Hey @RobertaPell!
If the link is already in the module, you should be able to right click the link in the module and select Copy link address. Then paste the link wherever you need it within a page. Once the link is set up on the page the way you want, I would remove the link from the module if it is no longer needed.
Hope this helps!
Hi @RobertaPell,
I just wanted to quickly add one potential caveat to the info @ryan_corris provided. If the module item is truly just a plain external URL, everything should work as Ryan stated. Since you mentioned the link being to an eBook, it may be the case that that link it actually an external tool launch URL, which will pass aloneg data form Canvas when clicked to authenticate users to the eBook platform. If that is the case, I don't believe you'll be able to replicate that URL and launch process with a link in a page. I figured this may help out in case Ryan's advice didn't work (and for other people who may come across this thread in the future too).

Here is a screenshot from an attempt to create a new Athena account. What does it mean when it says "supports open Canvas connections" or "Canvas Connection Open"? Can we close our Canvas instance to connections?
Is having students read the textbook considered an assignment or an activity if there is no grade but a required date?
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. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
