When Google Drive files (docs, sheets, and slides) are uploaded as a submission, the files convert to their Microsoft counterpart file types and appear in the submission as respective Word, Excel, or PowerPoint files.In Google Drive assignments, you can only submit one file for your submission.

Otherwise, you must enable Google Drive as a web service in your user profile to upload Google Drive files. If your course displays a link to your Google Drive in the Course Navigation Menu, your course has enabled Google Drive directly.If the Google Drive tab is not available in your submission, your institution has not enabled this feature.You can also upload any uploaded Word (.doc/.docx), Excel (.xls/.xlsx), PowerPoint (.ppt/.pptx), and PDF files not converted to Google Docs formatting.

Unlike other assignment submissions, files from Google Drive are not uploaded into your Canvas user files.Ĭanvas accepts Google Doc, Google Sheet, and Google Slide files. If your institution has enabled Google Drive as a submission type, you can upload a file from Google Drive for an assignment.
