LMS Integration Guide for Brightspace/D2L
The integration is used for Class Mapping and Student Access. Noodle Factory will provide the following information:
- Launch URL
- Consumer key
- Shared secret
Instructions on setting up tool provider in Brightspace:
Reference :
https://documentation.brightspace.com/EN/le/lti/admin/set_up_integration_with_tool_provider.html
1. From the Admin Tools menu, click External Learning Tools.
2. Click the Manage Tool Providers tab.
3. Click New Tool Provider.
4. In the Launch Point field, enter the Tool URL (do not include http://).
5. In the Version field, choose a version. There are various versions of LTI, each with a
range of capabilities. For details on functionality, refer to the LTI version chart.
6. In the OAuth Signature Method field, specify the cryptographic hash function.
HMAC-SHA256 is the default value.
Note: If a link does not domain match to a tool provider, HMAC-SHA1 is specified
instead of the default HMAC-SHA256 value. If the tool requires HMAC-SHA256, you
must create a tool provider using HMAC-SHA256.
7. In the Secret field, enter the Consumer shared secret.
8. To use a key that is not your default key, check the Use custom tool consumer
information instead of default check box and update the appropriate fields
(Consumer key).
9. To manage security settings at the tool provider level rather than for each individual
link, under Security Settings, select the tool consumer, context, and user
information required by the tool provider.
10. Click Save.
