  • If necessary, you can delete a video or audio file from your collection in Arc.

    Deleting a video or audio file also removes all comments.

    Note: If you delete media from a course collection, the media will only be deleted from the course where you are deleting the media. The media will still exist in all other collections where the media exists.

  • Arc can be used as a standalone product, but its strength lies in its integration power. Arc integrates with Canvas and allows instructors to seamlessly integrate media interaction into the classroom.

    When Arc is integrated with Canvas, all Arc users can use Arc as an external tool through the the Rich Content Editor. The Rich Content Editor is part of multiple features in Canvas including Assignments, Discussions, and Pages. For students, the Rich Content Editor is also available in course groups and in Text Entry assignment submissions.

    By default, embedded media files allow comments to be added, though comments can be removed based on user preference.

    Note: Depending on your user role, not all Arc functionality may be available through the Rich Content Editor. If your Global Navigation Menu includes a link to Arc, you can manage videos at any time directly through an Arc account. Instructors can also access Arc through the Course Navigation Menu.

  • You can share a video or audio file from your collection with any user in your institution's account and allow them view or edit rights. Users can view shared media in the Shared with Me collection drop-down link. You can change or remove sharing permissions for media at any time.

    If you allow a user to view a video or audio file, the user can view the media, have access to the sharing settings embed code and public link, share the media with others, remove themselves from having access to view the media, the details, and comments.

    If you allow a user to edit a video or audio file, the user has all permissions allowed as if that user had originally uploaded the media file, including deleting the media, editing details and options, and viewing analytic insights.

    This lesson shows you how to share a video directly from the My Collection page. However, when you own a video or a user has shared a video with you, sharing options are also available when viewing a video. You can also share an audio file.

    Note: Currently, you cannot share media with a user until Arc verifies the user's account in a course enrollment. Verifications are made when the user views embedded Arc media in a Canvas course. Additionally, you can only share media with users in your Canvas courses.

  • Each video and audio file includes an embed code and public link that you can use for showing media in public websites. Located in the Sharing options for a video or audio file, public links and embed codes do not include comments. Additionally, public links and embed codes are not authenticated so they cannot track viewer data in Arc.

    This lesson shows you how to get a link or embed code directly from the My Collection page. However, when you own a medie file or a user has shared a media file with you, the link and code are also available when viewing media.

    Notes:

    • Viewing public links and embed codes is an account permission. If you are not able to view the Links tab, your institution has restricted this feature to all users except Arc admins.
    • If you want to include comments when embedding media, you need to embed through the Arc LTI tool. Learn how to embed media in Canvas.
