Set up ScreenPal with Canvas LMS using the LTI v1.3 app

Set up ScreenPal with Canvas LMS using the LTI v1.3 app

Add the LTI v1.3 app as a Canvas admin

Our application integrates with many learning management systems via the Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) standard.  This article will help you with the setup and use of our LTI version 1.3 app with the Canvas LMS.  For information about how to set up LTI version 1.1 with Canvas, see Set up ScreenPal with Canvas LMS using LTI version 1.1. If you are transitioning from an existing ScreenPal (or Screencast-O-Matic) LTI v1.1 integration, please see Upgrade to ScreenPal LTI version 1.3 for Canvas.

Please note that while we 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.

Create a Developer Key

First, Canvas requires you to create a Developer Key, which defines how and where ScreenPal can be accessed and what data in can access.

1. To begin, log into Canvas as an administrator. 
2. On the left, click Admin, and select the name of your organization.



3. From the Admin menu, click Developer Keys.



4. Click the + Developer Key button in the top right and select LTI Key.



The Key Settings page is displayed:



5. Enter a Key Name. For example, ScreenPal LTI 1.3.
Note: If you were previously using LTI version 1.1, be sure to give your Developer Keys unique names that will easily differentiate them from one another. 

6. For Owner Email, enter your email address.
7. You can leave the Redirect URIs field blank.
8. From the Method list, select Enter URL.
10. Click Save in the bottom right corner.
Key Settings closes and you will see the Developer Key that you just created displayed in the list.

11. Click the Edit (pencil) icon next to the Developer Key you just created.



12. On the Key Settings page, if the form appears blank, set the Method field to "manual".
13. Confirm that the Redirect URIs field now contains the following value: https://screenpal.com/lti-1p3/launch



14. Close Key Settings by clicking Cancel.
15. Turn the key on, by switching the State toggle to the on position:



16. Next, copy the value in the Details column. This is your Client ID and will be needed later in the configuration process.

4. Click Submit.  

As a teacher, you've now added the ScreenPal LTI app to your course.  You can click on the icon shown below in the rich text editor to add screen recordings, channels, or a ScreenPal screen recorder that your students can submit their own recordings with.  


Please note that if you click the ScreenPal icon while creating or editing an assignment and you are either not currently logged into ScreenPal, or you have not yet used LTI version 1.3, you will be prompted to enter a verification code. This code will be sent to the email address associated with your ScreenPal account. Enter it correctly to proceed with adding ScreenPal content.
