Attention: Book Publishers, EdTech Software providers, and my fellow Canvas Admins… This video is for you.
Recently Instructure debuted Canvas Apps, “…a new feature designed to streamline app integration and management for Canvas root admins.” Their words, not mine.
One of the more noticeable changes I found with this new way of managing and installing LTIs is the sequence of how Canvas Admins enter the third-party vendor’s specific information in the install fields. As I ventured into the new era of LTI app installs in my Canvas instance, I failed three times to get all the information entered correctly in Beta.
Now that I learned the appropriate steps, I wanted to share with my fellow Canvas Admins ~ as well as online book publishers and software companies providing LTIs to Canvas institutions ~ so that we all can progress together with the least amount of installation friction as possible.
Thanks very much for your time,
-Chris
