March 2026 Update
We will be replacing the outdated and unsupported Padlet application that is currently installed.
This only affects how content is linked in Canvas and does not affect the account or the files you have created in this platform.
- Your padlets are safe. Nothing has been deleted.
- Old embeds still load. Students can open them as before. Students will need to sign in to Padlet manually when they open an old embedded padlet. Automatic sign-in no longer works on those.
- To restore automatic sign-in, remove the old embed and add a new one using your LMS's updated Padlet tool. Students will then be signed in automatically again
The removal and reinstallation of this applications is scheduled for July 17, 2026.
For more information, please refer to the "How to re-embed your Padlets after your schoolʻs LTI 1.3 upgrade"
