From within the Canvas course containing the video that needs to be shared, navigate to the Archive Recordings (Faculty Access Only) menu option.
Locate the video that needs to be shared and select the Share button.
Enter the student’s ID number and select their name from the list that shows up. Ensure that Viewer is showing in the drop-down menu to the right. This step can be repeated to add others to the list for access.
Once you click their name, it will populate in the box. Use the toggle Send an email to notify people, then add a message to that person before selecting Send.
This sets permissions for the video to be viewed by the selected individuals and then sends them an email with a link to view it.
