External App Integrations

One of the most powerful features of Canvas is the ability to integrate with third-party applications, or apps. Integrated apps allow instructors to offer content and learning tools beyond the core functionality within Canvas itself. This page lists external tools available for use in courses, along with those In Progress, Under Review, Canceled, and Not Approved. Note: Only tools that are already installed or that we are currently working on are listed here, not every tool that has been requested. Any Completed tools listed below that connect to external, third-party services have been through an extensive evaluation process involving UNM’s Information Security & Privacy Office, IT Academic Technologies, Purchasing, Registrar, and others to ensure student data is protected. It is because of the requirements of this process that instructors do not have the ability to add Apps to UNM Canvas themselves.

The tools with a status of Completed are ready for use. Please be aware that certain tools require coordination with the Bookstore or another department on campus in order for them to work. Some tools have already been installed in every Canvas course, whereas others must be enabled through the Settings > Navigation tab in your course. Information about licensure, any coordination needed, and links to documentation are included below.
