On my teachers discussion board we need to watch videos but they all say I need to sign in to watch video. If I click sign in it leads me to a new tab that says "HTTP Error 400. The size of the request headers is too long."
Hi @CaitlinMerendo ...
It looks like the instructor for this course is using a third-party video service called Panopto which integrates with Canvas. Unfortunately, I am not sure of an answer for you...though there may be other folks here in the Community that use Panopto that might be able to provide some help.

Another option for you might be to reach out to your school's Canvas administrator or someone from your school's Online Learning Center / eLearning / Distance Education department. Also, contact your instructor if you've not done so already.

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…
