Remove a LTI tool in an subaccount

Is there a way to remove a LTI tool that is available globally from an subaccount? using javascript in the subaccount?

So that other users can use this LTI tool, but only courses under this specific subaccount will not be able to use the LTI tool.

Hi Li,

You should be able to use something link this in the JavaScript file for that sub-account:

<SPAN class="comment token">// Remove LTI Tool from course navigation</SPAN><BR /><SPAN class="token function">$</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'#left-side a:contains("Link Text/Tool Name")'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN><SPAN class="token function">remove</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN><BR /><SPAN class="comment token">// Remove LTI Tool from navigation tab in course settings</SPAN><BR /><SPAN class="token function">$</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'#nav_form li:contains("Link Text/Tool Name")'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN><SPAN class="token function">remove</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

Where "Link Text/Tool Name" would be the actual text that you see in the left navigation or the navigation list. If this is not unique to the specific tool, you might want to come up with a different approach.

Hope that helps,

I see.

Do you think it is same for removing item(s) from the external tool selection drop down menu? The menu when an user is trying to add an external tool from modules or pages.

thanks a lot
