About Canvas files Downloader
🤦🏻♂️ The purpose of creating Canvas Files Downloader extension is to facilitate the process of downloading files especially in the modules path/tab; because currently in order for students to download a file, they have to make multiple clicks to do so. 🎯 This extension allows students to either download all attachments/files by selecting all or download only the selected ones in modules, pages, assignments, and wiki (tab/path). If there is only one attachment in any of these paths, users will get the download button with number of files that you could download ( as in fi) 💡 ( Turn off / disable ) the "Ask where to save each file before downloading" option on chrome://settings/downloads ,so that you download the selected files immediately without getting the popup dialog. 🥳 This extension works for all schools that use Canvas Learning Management System (LMS) / Instructure
