When an instructor uploads a .html file, an HTML file redirecting to https://${canvas_domain}/api/v1/courses/${course_id}/module_item_redirect/${file_id} will be put under modules in place of the actual file. This results in the actual content not being downloaded, but you end up with the file (${var} are redacted variables)

<html>
<head>
    <title>${file_title}</title>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=https://${canvas_domain}/api/v1/courses/${course_id}/module_item_redirect/${file_id}" />
</head>
<body>
    <p>Redirecting you to <a href="https://${canvas_domain}/api/v1/courses/${course_id}/module_item_redirect/${file_id}">${file_name}</a></p>
</body>
</html>

Seems to be a very rare case, and I don't have an environment which could reproduce this... If you are interested in this, you may help fix.

I'm getting this too. I wonder if it has to do with courses that are private vs public? I only have private courses so I have nothing to compare to. I was about to create a project similar to this for myself but since I've found this I might be able to look into this.

Bear with me as it might take a while for time to free up.
