Overview
VidGrid allows Canvas users to capture videos directly from the LMS. With the integration, users are automatically created and logged in based on their Canvas credentials. Creators can record, upload, and search their library for content. Videos can be inserted anywhere the Rich Content Editor (RCE) resides in Canvas.
Additionally, auto-graded video quizzes, student recording assignments, and a full-app portal view can be configured.
This document outlines the setup for the following integrations:
