LTI integration between Teams and Canvas
The university I work for has the Panopto LTI set up for Canvas.
We are currently looking at the MS365 LTI for Canvas but need a simple way for the Teams videos to be automatically assigned to the course Panopto folder. This is not currently facilitated by Panopto.
This currently exists for Zoom but not Teams.

There are a few problems with Teams generally, and while integrations can help in some areas, Microsoft has made some decisions on how certain things have been implemented that I just can't wrap my head around.
I agree that this functionality would be fantastic, but this specifically is going to be a difficult problem to solve from what I understand and it would take Microsoft making some substantial changes. The way Microsoft has the LTI set up, course meetings are created as personal meetings instead of as meetings associated with the Team set up for the course. If you're never needing that meeting again, that is totally fine. If you are producing artifacts from that meeting, it causes some issues. Beyond the usability problem with that, there is some missing context data on the Microsoft side, so there isn't anything that can be used to tie that meeting to a Canvas course (at least there wasn't when we last looked at it). Even if the meeting recording is left in SPO, there is nothing really tying it back to the course. Zoom solved this by partnering with LMS and VCMS tools to provide everyone involved with the right data, but Microsoft doesn't seem interested in that.
Another prime example of this in my eye is deleting a recording from Teams/SPO. When this is done (either by an integration or via the UI) there is no way to remove the "recording ready" message that Teams sends automatically. This means that you now just have a broken link in your Chat/Channel. It's not the end of the world, but…why design it in a way that is going to trip up users?
