Before any Panopto recordings can be access by students in MyClasses, faculty must enable Panopto in their MyClasses course. If the Panopto Recordings option is not visible on the course navigation menu, see the Enabling Panopto to Your MyClasses Course section, for information on how to add it to your course menu.
If you copied a course from a previous semester, the Panopto Recordings should appear on the course menu. In order to reuse Panopto recordings from a previous semester, faculty must:
- Enable Panopto for the given semester to create a group within Panopto for access to the recordings.
- Assign the current group to the previous semester recordings folder. This will provide current students with the ability to view the recordings.

Activate Panopto For a Given Semester
Activating Panopto creates a course folder within Panopto and provides the Panopto server with a list of current students. Students in the course automatically have viewing rights to all videos within their course Panopto folder.
- Login to MyClasses Canvas and select the desired course.
- From the course navigation, select Panopto Recordings.
- A folder will be created for the current semester. This also provides the Panopto server with a list of your students and provides them view rights to all videos within this folder.
