SharePoint Cloud Assignments

[apettit]

I'm wondering if anyone is working on a way to see SharePoint files to use as Cloud Assignments like with Office 365?  Our District utilizes SharePoint for collaboration between our staff and it would be awesome if they could store all their departmental assessment files (word, ppt, etc.) in SharePoint to create assignments from like an O365 Cloud Assignment?

Thanks to anyone who get's this started or has some insight! 🙂

We are looking at this for the next academic year.
The entire college uses sharepoint for file collaboration and it all goes downhill and more or less defeats the point them having to download this to OneDrive and than add as a cloud assignment - not to mention the added backup costs of duplication.

Do we know if this is a Microsoft or a Canvas limitation? Is there any way to surface a document library within Canvas?
