Note: Configuration of an external tool requires information unique to the external solution being integrated. In addition, integration with a solution from a third-party vendor may require an account with that vendor. Be sure to confirm all necessary information for an external solution before configuration.
Select External Tools from the Tool Menu in the Administration Workspace.
Click Installed Tools. If any external tools have been configured and made available in your instance, you'll see them listed.
On the External Tool page, select settings and provide information as appropriate.
Enter the appropriate site ID in the Site Id field if you want the external tool to be available ONLY in that site. If you want the external tool to be available in all sites, be sure to leave this field blank.
Note: The following settings are unique to each external solution. If the solution being integrated is from a third-party vendor, the vendor typically provides this information.
(Optional) Select the Allow radio button for any of these items to let site owners edit this information.
To specify a height for the tool frame in a site, enter a value (in pixels) in the Frame Height field. Choose Allow to let site owners edit this value.
To specify the default order of the tool in the Tool Menu, specify a number in the list. This option is only available for LTI that are available in all sites.
Determine the site information you want provided to the external solution, and whether the solution will return grades for Gradebook integration. Select settings as appropriate.
Select the ways in which you would like this tool to be able to launch within a site.
Choose how the external solution displays when it launches.
Click Allow popup to be changed to let site owners edit this setting.
Choose whether debug data will display to site owners when the external solution launches. Click Allow debug mode to be changed to let site owners edit this setting.
Enter text in the Splash Screen field, as appropriate. This text will display to all users before the external tool launches.
If you are configuring an LTI 1.1 tool, leave the default selection of Tool does not support LTI 1.3.
If you are configuring an LTI 1.3 or LTI Advantage tool, select Tool supports LTI 1.3.
For LTI 1.3 tools, enter the Tool OpenID Connect/Initialization Endpoint and Tool Redirect Endpoint(s) into the two fields provided.
If you are setting up an LTI 1.3 /Advantage tool, the preferred configuration option is to use the LTI Dynamic Registration URL, as it will auto-fill many of the fields for you.
Click the Save button. You'll see the external tool listed with other external tools available in the system.
