3. Post the Link in your Canvas Course.
The Teams meeting link can be posted in many different ways in Canvas. Here are some of the more common methods.
Send a course Announcement.
Announcements are a great way to post meeting links. Details are available in the Canvas Announcement Guide. Students can view past announcements in the Announcements menu item.
The course must be published and the Start Date (under course settings) must have passed in order for Announcements to be sent to students.
