How to Require LockDown Browser for a Quiz in Canvas

This document explains how to setup quizzes in Canvas to use Respondus LockDown Browser.

On your course navigation bar, click on the "LockDown Browser" tab. You will see a list of every quiz within your Canvas course. 

Next, click on the quiz you'd like to add LockDown Browser to and select "Settings" from the dropdown menu. 

From the Settings tab you will be able to setup all of the specifics for that instance of LockDown Browser. You'll first need to change the LockDown Browser Settings to "Require LockDown Browser for this exam." From there, you'll have access to a variety of different settings, including Advanced Settings (under the + menu). 

Click "Save + Close" when you're finished. Your quiz will now use Respondus LockDown Browser within Canvas.
