Linking Canvas to the Cyber Range

Create a Course

If you don't already have a course in the Cyber Range, please create one now. Please visit the article titled Creating a Course for more information. Make sure that you are designated as the instructor of the course before trying to complete the connection.

Log Into Your Cyber Range Account in Canvas

  1. In your Canvas course, the app you created earlier should be displayed along the left navigation pane. Click on the app you created. Our sample app was called "Cyber Range".
  2. If the connection was successful, a prompt to login using the authentication provider of your choice should now be displayed. Choose the login option that corresponds to your Cyber Range instructor account. Your options for authentication are Google and Azure AD

Choose a Cyber Range Course for Integration

  1. After logging in, you will be presented with a drop-down box that includes all of your Cyber Range courses. Select the course you want to link.
  2. Click "CONFIRM" and wait for the courses to be linked. The "Course" dropdown box contains any courses you are an instructor for.
  3. Once it has finished the linking process, the Cyber Range UI will be integrated into your Canvas window. The entire Cyber Range UI will be embedded directly into the Canvas UI.
