Accessing a Canvas page from a hyperlink in a google doc.

[dcramer1]

I am creating a curriculum guide for my course. The guide is shared with my admin in google docs. I would like for my admin to be able to click a link in the guide and bring up a copy of my weekly front page in Canvas. When the admin tries to click the link it gives an error 403: This service is not configured for this user. Thank you.

In order to access a Canvas page, a person has to have a role in that course shell as an instructor, student, developer, observer, and so on. You cannot link out from Canvas this way. You're going to have to find an alternative way to provide this information.
