The following summarizes Panopto's workflows in Canvas and elsewhere.
In Canvas:
1. Record a video (or choose an existing video file).
2. Upload to Panopto (use My Folder unless you're staff or teaching an official online course, in which case ITG will make you a folder).
3. Embed the video in Canvas using the Panopto-embed button (
) above any text editor. Everyone in the class can view it.
Outside of Canvas:
1. Record a video (or choose an existing video file).
2. Upload to Panopto (use My Folder unless you're staff, in which case ITG will make you a folder).
3. Share the video appropriately.
4. Embed the video or link to it. The people you shared with can view it.
Panopto uses a unique vocabulary. Here are some helpful terms:
Session: A video
Creators: Instructors and TAs
Viewers: Students
Can Create: Can upload videos to a folder
Can View: Can view videos
Share: Give others permission to view a video, to view a folder's contents, or to upload to a folder
