Contents

The LTI actions let an organization manage the LTI registrations, deployments, and links available to particular organization units. Callers can use these routes to fetch, register, deploy, update, and remove entries for LTI tools and LTI links. Note that each created LTI link will have a unique D2LID assigned so you can identify a link independently of the org unit with which it’s registered; however, you cannot register a single LTI link with more than one org unit. Registrations and deployments can only be created at the organization. These routes apply to LTI 1.3+ only.

Note

These structures and routes apply only to LTI Advantage (LTI v1.3+). You can also refer to the reference for legacy LTI support (LTI v1.1.x).

Tool Registration

LTI.CreateRegistrationData

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

{
    "IsEnabled": <boolean>,
    "Name": <string>,
    "Description": null|<string>,
    "Domain": <string>,
    "RedirectUrls": [ <string>,... ],
    "OpenIDConnectLoginUrl": <string>,
    "KeysetUrl": null|<string>,
    "EnabledExtensions": [ <number:EXTENSION_T>,... ],
    "SendInstitutionRole": <boolean>
}
LTI.RegistrationData

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

{
    "ClientId": <GUID>,
    "IsEnabled": <boolean>,
    "Name": <string>,
    "Description": null|<string>,
    "Domain": <string>,
