I have connected my Google Drive to Canvas via settings. When I go under Modules, and add new using External Tool, The Google Drive does not show up. Other apps do--but not Google. Can Free Canvas access Google Drive?
Hello @ChrisEch ...
When the Google Apps LTI integration is installed in Canvas, it is available in the following areas of a course:
This means that you cannot add the Google Apps tool directly to your "Modules" index page. However, it can be added to the other areas of your course as shown above. In your own course, when you go to your "Settings" page, click on the "Apps" tab, and then click on the "View App Configurations" tab. You should see a row for "Google Apps". Click on the icon on the far right side of the screen for "Google Apps", and you should see the "Placements" of where the app is available within your course.
Also, this page on the EduAppCenter has more information about the LTI tool which might be useful for you:

Hopefully this helps to clarify things for you. Sing out if you have any other questions about this...thanks!
Edit: I just re-read your question, and you had asked about Google Drive...which is part of the Google Apps LTI. I *think* you should have access to Google Drive via the "Modules" screen. I checked this in my own sandbox account (where I also have admin access...not in a FFT account), and I do have the "Google Drive" option to select a file from my Google account to include in a Canvas module. I am not sure why you wouldn't be able to see that option in your own course. Is there a file in your Google Drive account that you could just download from there and then upload it into your Canvas course so that you aren't needing to rely on a third-party tool to house that particular file? Instead, could you store that file in your Canvas "Files" and link to the file from there?

We have enabled the automatic migration of Classic to New Quizzes. When we import QTI files, though, they always fail to load as New Quizzes. If we disabled New Quiz Migration, it works. Why does it only work for Classic Quizzes? Are there any guaranteed tools that will generate QTI files that will import correctly as New…
Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
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…
