Submitting OneDrive files to Canvas assignments for students

As of May 20, 2026, the Class Notebook LTI and the Office 365 LTI will be removed from our Canvas instance. We are removing these tools because Microsoft is sunsetting them, and they will stop working on September 17, 2026. 

The removal of the Class Notebook and the Office 365 LTIs will result in the loss of some automation between Microsoft and Canvas, but students can follow the steps below as workarounds to continue using the tools in their Canvas courses. 

Using Microsoft Office 365 in Canvas

Submitting a File via OneDrive Link 

OneDrive files are shared as living documents rather than saved versions. You have the option to download the file from OneDrive and then upload to the assignment if you do not wish to share a link to the document.

In OneDrive

1. Log into your University OneDrive account using your campus email and password.
2. Locate your file.
3. Select the Share icon and set the permissions (e.g., People in University of Missouri with the link can view).
4. Copy the link

In Canvas

1. Highlight text in the Rich Content Editor (RCE). The RCE can be found in pages, assignments, discussions, and more in Canvas, allowing you to share your document(s) in multiple locations. 
2. Select the Link icon.
3. Select External Links.
4. Paste your OneDrive URL.
