Canvas Integrates with OneDrive
Why?
This fall, WPI IT launched Microsoft's Office 365. The cloud storage component of Office 365 is called OneDrive. OneDrive allows you to store and access documents from anywhere, by logging into the new WPI Portal with your WPI credentials. Canvas has a OneDrive integration, so documents stored in OneDrive can be utilized in Canvas course sites without affecting course size quota.
Impact
OneDrive is enabled in WPI Canvas course sites as of Monday, September 10th, 2018. Benefits include: Ability to embed assignments into Canvas Ability to create OneDrive collaborations in Canvas Automatic synchronization of files embedded in Canvas
