Zoom Panopto Integration Through Canvas

For those that have opted into the Zoom integration for Panopto, there is a small issue with where the recordings will be stored.   When a Zoom recording is processed, it automatically gets moved to the user’s Panopto profile.  This results in the recording getting deleted in Zoom and ending up in the Zoom app’s trash.    When a Zoom recording has been processed the end-user receives an email from Zoom notifying them it’s ready.   If the faculty member clicks on the link in the email the recording won’t be there.   Instead, they would need to go to the Panopto module in Canvas to see the recordings.

• This Zoom Panopto integration allows faculty to schedule Zoom recordings at  https://utexas.zoom.us and have them automatically populate in the Panopto module within your Canvas Courses.  This would bypass the Zoom issue exposing class zoom links inside of Canvas to students and appearing to be in hybrid mode.
• It is a 2-step process within Canvas and Panopto.  This will usually need to be done at the beginning of the semester before classes begin.
  1. Accept the Panopto/Zoom integration setting dialog. - Zoom Integration Main Campus (Zoom) – in Panopto user settings. (highlighted below)
  2. Create a folder mapping in Canvas using a unique Zoom meeting ID (your class Zoom meeting ID) – (highlighted below).  This enables your class recordings to show up in the correct Canvas Course.
  3. You’ll need to do step 2 for each of your courses where you want video showing up.
  4. Videos magically appear in your courses.  It’s helpful to verify your folder mapping is correct by doing a short recording in Zoom of each particular class.
  5. Remember, this will need to be done each semester since Zoom Meeting IDs and Unique Course numbers will change by the semester.
