Select the day and time you want the Page to automatically publish by typing the date and time in the Publish At field [3] or by using the calendar icon [4] to select the date and time.
When a Publish At date and time are set, the Save & Publish option is disabled. Select Save [5] to save the Page. The page will automatically be published on the date you set.

In the Pages section of Canvas, you can see all of your pages and their current status:
A. Published (white check in green circle)
B. Unpublished (open circle)
C. Will Automatically Publish on set date (red calendar)

You can add pages that are set to publish automatically to Modules. Students will not see the page until it automatically publishes. For example, you may have a lecture video you want to include in a weekly module, but do not want students to view until a certain date. Using the Publish At functionality allows you to do this without having to remember throughout the term to publish pages at a later date.
