How can you generate embed codes for Google Slides so I can embed them in my Canvas page?
Screenshots are provided below.
Some content has been blurred for privacy reasons.
Usually, Google Slides have to be published to the web to obtain the embed code. (File -> Share -> Publish to the web.) However, this wouldn't be ideal for you, because you don't want your slides to be indexed by Google Search (and therefore searchable by anyone on the internet.) Try the following instead. First, to get the embed link without publishing:
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/YourPresentationID/edit
/edit
/embed
?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/YourPresentationID/embed?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000
Adjust your parameters as needed:
start=false
loop=false
delayms=3000
Over in Canvas, go to the page or assignment and click Edit -> Insert -> Embed. Paste your modified url from above into the following iframe code. Adjust the width and height as needed. This should ensure that viewers see the slides in presentation mode without access to the editor or speaker notes:
<iframe src="https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/YourPresentationID/embed?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000" frameborder="0" width="800" height="450" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Hi @CallieAlreza
Along with what @lngines shared, you might want to take a look at the tricks for Google Docs in general that are available at https://learninginhand.com/blog/google-document-url-tricks.

Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
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…
