Add a Document Activity

This article explains how to upload or embed a document in a course activity.

There are 3 ways to add a Document Activity to a course:

1. From the Media Library: This option is helpful if you're looking to upload multiple documents at the same time.
2. From the Syllabus Builder: If you have a single document you'd like to add to a specific course activity, use this option to upload the document directly from the Syllabus Builder. Documents uploaded using this method will also be automatically available in the Media Library.
3. Using an Embed Code: If you have an embed code for the document you wish to add, use this method.
