The integration with Google Drive works if you have fewer than 500 items on your Google Drive. If you have 500 or more, you'll need to download the file from Google Drive, then upload using the File tab in the Canvas assignment as explained in the "How do I submit an assignment in Canvas" tutorial.

How instructors and students share files
When an instructor creates an assignment, they can attach files such as Google Docs, PDFs, or other materials for students to work on. For example, they might include:
- A Docs essay assignment
- A PDF worksheet
- A reference image
After an instructor publishes the assignment, students work on the files and can add their own materials. When students turn in their work, instructors can review and grade their work and files.
As files are exchanged between students and instructors, Assignments automatically manages Drive file permissions. When instructors receive student work, they automatically get edit access.
The workflow when you grade in Google Assignments

How do instructors make a copy of each file for their students?
When instructors publish an assignment with coursework files attached from their device or Google Drive, Assignments creates a copy of each file for each student. The file is saved to an automatically created course folder inside the student’s Drive Assignments folder.
Can students submit Drive files they don’t own?
What happens if instructors accidentally remove a student's file.
In Drive, if instructors accidentally delete a student’s file, it might be available in their Trash folder. Instructors can restore the file from there. However, if they deleted the file from the Trash, the admin needs to restore it.
If the admin can’t restore the file, instructors can ask their student to unsubmit their assignment and resubmit it using the backup copy from their Assignments folder in Drive.
Can a student unshare a returned file?
Yes. However, if instructors need to view the file, they can open the backup copy in their Drive course folder.
How do instructors view a file they returned?
If the student’s file is still shared, the instructor can open the file in Assignments and find any current edits. If the student has unshared the file, the instructor can ask them to share it again in Docs or Drive.
To view files in their returned state, instructors can go to the Assignments folder in Drive and open the backup file. Backup file names begin with the prefix “Copy of.”
Why can't instructors edit a file?
- Instructors should check if their file permissions are View only or Edit access . With View only , you can’t edit a file.
What are file permissions?
| With this file permission... | I can: |
|---|---|
| Edit access | Make changes to the file. Create or delete content. Leave comments, suggested edits, or direct edits. |
| View only | View the file, but not make any changes. |
How can instructors check file permissions?
How can instructors collaborate on a file before a student submits it, how can students collaborate on a file before instructors return it.
Students can check your direct edits as an instructor to a file before you return it. They can’t see your comments or suggested edits until you return the file.
If you want students to see your comments and suggested edits before you return the file:
- Open the student’s file in the grading tool.
- To give students edit access, share the file with them.
