How to set up ScreenPal with Blackboard using LTI v1.3

The ScreenPal LTI screen recorder integrates with many learning management systems.  This article will help with the setup of the ScreenPal LTI version 1.3 app within the Blackboard LMS for administrators and teachers. For information about how to set up version 1.1 of the LTI plugin, please see Set up ScreenPal with Blackboard using LTI v1.1.

You can use the LTI app to enable Blackboard to access the Recorder and Video Editor, as well as other tools provided by your team plan (embedding a video channel, adding a screen recorder button for student assignments, etc.)

If you are a member of a Team Plan, in order for your team members to access the features of a Team Plan, the Team Admin for your ScreenPal account will need to configure the LTI App.

Alert
Important: If your team is currently using the ScreenPal LTI v1.1 tool, please see Upgrade to ScreenPal LTI version 1.3 for Blackboard and follow those instructions instead of those outlined in this article.

Please note that while ScreenPal will continue to support the use of LTI v1.1 with ScreenPal, we will no longer be developing ScreenPal feature updates for this version.

Use of the LTI app is only supported for Team Business and Team Education plans.
