Oh...global navigation! Sorry...I misunderstood. Are you a Canvas administrator? Or, are you an instructor? If you are a Canvas administrator, I've seen where people have asked how to add another button...such as in this topic: Solved: How do I add Global Nav item? - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com). If you are an admin, it looks like you'd need to add some code to your global JavaScript file to make this happen. Anything you add like this would be visible to everyone in your Canvas environment...not just for your own courses (if you were an instructor).
Hope this might help. Keep Community members posted...thanks!
Add the Redirect LTI to your course. You can add the Redirect LTI simply by going to your course "Settings" >> "Apps" tab >> "Redirect Tool". >> "+ Add App" button. Give it whatever name you want. The "URL Redirect" would be the URL of the page that you created in your course. Make sure to check the option for "Show in Course Navigation".
Hopefully that will work for your needs. If you have a sandbox course, you could always test this in there first...or you could even test out these steps in your school's Canvas "test" environment ... which is separate from your school's "production" environment that you typically log into on a daily basis.
This is great, thank you for your guidance. The redirect tool is new to me, though testing this, I'm unable to get a placement on the global navigation bar, which is where I really need the link. Do you know if this might be possible?
