LTI 1.3 Setup

This guide focuses on Edlink's recommended hybrid integration (API + LTI 1.3). However, it is also possible to configure your app using an LTI Advantage–only setup.

Please confirm with the learning app that an LTI-only source is something they support before proceeding.

Check out the following guide to get your LTI Advantage source set up in Edlink:

Step 1: Open Developer Keys in Canvas

• In Canvas, go to:
  Admin → Your School Name → Developer Keys (left column)
• Click + Developer Key → + LTI Key

Step 2: Enter Configuration Details

• Choose the Enter URL method
• Fill in the following fields:
  • Key Name: Enter the name of the learning application
  • Owner Email: support@ed.link
  • JSON URL: This is the Configuration JSON found in the Edlink dashboard.
