- The properties dialog for the selected file is displayed. Modify any of the fields and click Select this file; or click Cancel to select a different file.

NOTE: You may also access and add files from Google Shared drives to your course.
NOTES...
Not all file types can be uploaded, so the file list is filtered.
A Google Docs file will be converted to a Word document, and a Google Sheets file will be converted to an Excel file and will open in those applications.
The link is to the uploaded file, a copy of the original, and the file is not updated when the file on Google Drive is modified. You will need to Edit settings for the File link on AsULearn and upload the modified file.
