Replace a video in Canvas Studio

[JeffCampbell]

In a course's Files browser, if I upload a picture with the exact same file name, it will ask if I want to replace the original or create a new one. If I choose to replace, all content in the course that uses that picture will automatically show the updated version without having to go back and replace all of the pictures.

Does anyone know if there is a way to upload a video to Canvas Studio such that all courses using the video will do the same thing? 

Or will I just need to go into the course and replace the videos manually?

Hello @JeffCampbell ,

I am it has taken a while to reply back to this post! I have taken a look into this and run some testing here related to the Studio videos and where the video links can be automatically replaced similar to the photos you mentioned. In the case of Canvas Studio videos, they are sourced as a third-party tool even though it is managed by Canvas. Since it is sourced as a third-party tool the links require being replaced manually if there is a change made to them.

I hope this helps answer your questions!! If you have any follow-up questions please let us know!

Hi @JeffCampbell ,

At this point, there is no way to replace embedded Studio content retrospectively in that easy manner. The primary challenge comes from the fact that Studio videos are embedded via LTI rather than using simple links as the images work from the File browser. With that said, replacing the entire LTI embed code is something we are yet to look into more but definitely an exciting improvement.

Best,
