Resolution
Studio videos can be embedded in any area that uses the Rich Content Editor (RCE), including Pages, Assignments, Discussions, and even Classic/New Quizzes. More information on using Studio is available in the Canvas Studio Guide.
To access Studio from the RCE, follow the instructions or refer to the Canvas Guide for embedding Canvas Studio media in a Canvas course:
- Click the Canvas Studio icon in the toolbar:

- Find and select your video from your Studio library or collection, or use the Create button to upload or record a new video. Select your desired embed view from the options, set any viewer restrictions, then click the Embed Media button. Be sure to click Save on the page, assignment, quiz question, etc., or Reply on your discussion post to ensure your video is added
- Note: For media used in quiz questions, use the Learn View as it supports playback directly on the page without opening in a new window (which may not be possible in proctored quizzes with certain settings)
