    Is it possible to instantiate a prefab inside a coordinate of a grid object? I'm trying to instantiate a health bar prefab that generated inside a canvas but it spawns based a location in the canvas (in pixels). How would I go about doing this?

    How are you instantiating your prefab? You may not want to parent your instantiated prefab as a child of your Canvas object as that would inherit from the positioning of that object.
