This page describes the steps needed for Canvas instructors to setup Webex in Canvas. Instructors will need to complete these steps with every new course site.

Click on Cisco Webex in the course navigation. If it is not listed, enable it by managing the course navigation links in course Settings.
Click on Setup.
Authorize with LMS by clicking Authorize to pair your Canvas account to your Cisco Webex account. This will only need to be done once.
In the pop-up window, click Authorize.
If you are fot already logged into your Webex account, you will be prompted to login with your 8-DigitEmployeeID@k12.hi.us and password. When you return to your Canvas course, Authorize will be grayed out in this course and all your other courses.
Choose your Features: Check the box next to options you plan to use in your course > click apply. You will need to choose your features for every new course site.
Set Timezone: Select your timezone in the drop down menu.
Click Save.
Webex Meetings Attendance Grading: Webex Meetings Attendance Grader allows instructors to assign a participation grade for attending virtual meetings in the course. Caution: Once this feature is turned on, it cannot be turned off. Your students must use the desktop client.
Note: If your course has been copied from a previous term and you are setting up your Webex, after choosing your features and setting your timezone, you may be prompted to logout of Webex and login again. Navigate back to the Virtual Meetings tab and click on the exit door to logout out of Webex and then follow the prompts to log in again with your 8-DigitEmployeeID@k12.hi.us and password.
