LTI management (links and tool providers)

Contents

The LTI actions let an organization manage the LTI tool providers and links available to particular organization units. Callers can use these routes to fetch, register (create), update, and remove entries for LTI tool providers and LTI links. Note that each created LTI tool provider registration will have a unique D2LID assigned (and so will each created LTI link), so you can identify a tool provider or link independently of the org unit with which it’s registered; however, you cannot register a single LTI tool provider or link with more than one org unit.

Note

The LTI API routes are fulfilled by the LE product component and included in the LE API contract version. The ‘lti’ product component listed in version blocks (such as Version.ProductVersions) indicates the level of LTI standard the platform supports, and not the API contract version for these routes.

Attributes

LTI.CreateLtiLinkData

When a client invokes an action to register or update an already registered LTI link for an org unit, it should provide a structure like this:

{
    "Title": <string>,
    "Url": <string>,
    "Description": <string>,
    "Key": <string>,
    "PlainSecret": <string>,
    "IsVisible": <boolean>,
    "SignMessage": <boolean>,
    "SignWithTc": <boolean>,
    "SendTcInfo": <boolean>,
    "SendContextInfo": <boolean>,
    "SendUserId": <boolean>,
    "SendUserName": <boolean>,
    "SendUserEmail": <boolean>,
    "SendLinkTitle": <boolean>,
    "SendLinkDescription": <boolean>,
    "SendD2LUserName": <boolean>,
    "SendD2LOrgDefinedId": <boolean>,
    "SendD2LOrgRoleId": <boolean>,
    "UseToolProviderSecuritySettings": <boolean>,
    "CustomParameters": null|[ <LTI.CustomParameter>, ... ]
}
CustomParameters

Any custom parameters will get passed as name-value pairs in this property; if no custom parameters are needed for this LTI link, this property will be null.

UseToolProviderSecuritySettings

If true, then this link will use all the Send* properties defined for the associated Tool Provider entry (as determined by URL matching against Tool Provider definitions).

LTI.CustomParameter

Encapsulates a custom LTI parameter in a name-value pair.

{
    "Name": <string>,
    "Value": <string>
}
LTI.LtiLinkData

When a client invokes an action that would retrieve the registration information for an LTI link, the Learning Service sends back a structure like this:

{
    "LtiLinkId": <number:D2LID>,
    "Title": <string>,
    "Url": <string>,
    "Description": <string>,
    "Key": <string>,
    "IsVisible": <boolean>,
    "SignMessage": <boolean>,
    "SignWithTc": <boolean>,
    "SendTcInfo": <boolean>,
    "SendContextInfo": <boolean>,
    "SendUserId": <boolean>,
    "SendUserName": <boolean>,
    "SendUserEmail": <boolean>,
    "SendLinkTitle": <boolean>,
    "SendLinkDescription": <boolean>,
    "SendD2LUserName": <boolean>,
    "SendD2LOrgDefinedId": <boolean>,
    "SendD2LOrgRoleId": <boolean>,
    "UseToolProviderSecuritySettings": <boolean>,
    "CustomParameters": null|[ <LTI.CustomParameter>, ... ]
}
UseToolProviderSecuritySettings

If true, then this link will use all the Send* properties defined for the associated Tool Provider entry (as determined by URL matching against Tool Provider definitions). Assumed to be False, by default.

LTI.LtiQuickLinkData

When a client creates a new quicklink around an existing LTI link, the service returns a structure like this to describe the new quicklink:

{
    "LtiLinkId": <number:D2LID>,
    "PublicUrl": <string>
}
PublicUrl

This property contains the URL location for the new quicklink.

LTI.CreateLtiProviderData

When a client invokes an action to register or update an already registered LTI tool provider for an org unit, it should provide a structure like this:

{
    "LaunchPoint": <string>,
    "Secret": <string>,
    "UseDefaultTcInfo": <boolean>,
    "Key": <string>,
    "Name": <string>,
    "Description": <string>,
    "ContactEmail": <string>,
    "IsVisible": <boolean>,
    "SendTcInfo": <boolean>,

    "SendD2LOrgDefinedId": <boolean>,
    "SendD2LOrgRoleId": <boolean>,
}
Send* properties

The list of Send* properties allow these security settings defined at the Tool Provider level to override security settings defined with any of the associated LTI Link definitions (as determined by matching LTI link Url properties aginst the Tool Provider’s LaunchPoint property).

LTI.LtiToolProviderData

When a client invokes an action that would retrieve the registration information for an LTI tool provider, the Learning Service sends back a structure like this:

{
    "LtiToolProviderId": <number:D2LID>,
    "OrgUnitId": <number:D2LID>,
    "LaunchPoint": <string>,
    "UseDefaultTcInfo": <boolean>,
