Description
In order to import a Moodle backup file (or Canvas Common Cartridge file) into ISU Canvas, the file must be smaller than 500 MB. If your backup file is larger than 500 MB, there are a number of options for reducing your course file size.
Move Videos to External Storage
-
If you have uploaded lecture videos or Zoom recordings directly into Moodle ISU, you will need to download them, then delete them from the course (we recommend a
Moodle ISU Temporary course for this process).
-
Upload your videos to an external storage solution such as Google Drive, YouTube, or Panopto (the preferred option). See the article,
Panopto: Video Management System for more information.

Compress/Convert PowerPoints
Move Large Files to Google Drive or Box
How do I know what size my Moodle ISU backup file is?
