Videos uploaded to your MyMedia account can be placed on any section of Canvas where the rich content editor (picture below) is available, such as discussion threads, announcements, assignments, etc. Videos placed on Canvas this way also bypass privacy settings on MyMedia so your videos can remain private on MyMedia while still being available for your students. This article will provide directions on how to authorize your Kaltura MyMedia in Canvas, and how to place a MyMedia video on a Canvas course.
In order to utilize the Browse, Search, and Embed (BSE) tool, you must authorize your MyMedia Account, within Canvas. To do this, you need to add Kaltura MyMedia to the Course Navigation and navigate there to authorize the connection between Kaltura MyMedia and Canvas. Upon authorizing, you should see your MyMedia Video Content within the Kaltura MyMedia on course navigation. You can add Kaltura MyMedia by clicking here or following the link below:

The content you see under your Kaltura MyMedia under course navigation is your own. Your students will not see your content there, but the content they own and can publish.
