Help with installing Redirect Tool. Stuck here:
It looks like through the new app center you can only use version 1.3 and if that is what you are using because you want to send info along with the link or etc., I might not be of much help. You can go here and see if you can make more sense of it: https://help.goopenmichigan.org/support/solutions/articles/42000098532-how-to-install-the-lti-1-3-tool-in-canvas https://canvas.instructure.com/doc/api/file.lti_dev_key_config.html However - if all you want to do is put in a link to a static URL that does not need authentication or the like, then do it the old way. Go to Settings, Go to the Apps tab, search for "Redirect" and use the old tool with blue arrow. Paste in your URL, choose your placement, and name it. That's it.
Hi,
Please check if this tool has LTI 1.1 or LTI 1.3 available for Canvas (LMS), also, always check with Canvas admin team to make sure there is proper access like SSO.
Some of the applications, you just need to add a url to redirect, some have deeper connection with you need to have a consumer key and shared secret to shake hand.
Hope it helps a bit
I agree with this. The "old" way to use the redirect tool, as you outlines, still works fine. It seems like that tool probably shouldn't even be listed in the new "Apps - Discover" area since it's really non-functional. I'm going to tag @AlexisNast on this, as it might be something she's able to get corrected (or let us know if there's something we are missing). I'd also encourage everyone to file a support case on this to get Instructure's attention.

Thanks for tagging me in! Yes, Redirect is LTI 1.1 only, and the new area only supports LTI 1.3 so far. Right now we're actually building out support for adding links to navigation bars natively into Canvas so that you won't have to add a tool at all (and we'll build a migration pathway and permissions as well.) Because LTI 1.3 is the only currently supported version of LTI by 1EdTech we prioritized solving for LTI 1.3 first. Our next focus will be on supporting API. Further down the road (likely at least a year out right now) we're looking at options for LTI 1.1 as well as for enabling instructors to manage tools when permitted by administrators. Hope this helps and please reach out with any questions!
There seems to be a change in my current rubric that it no longer shows different colours when marked via Speedgrader ie Red for Below Standard, Yellow for At Standard and Green for Above Standard. No it only shows Green across all Ratings. Is this able to be fixed?
We have a campus reporting that notes/comments entered directly in PowerTeacher Pro are being removed after a Canvas-to-PowerSchool grade sync runs. Based on the Instructure FAQ, we understand that only the following fields are transmitted during a sync: Assignment Description Assignment Group Association/Category…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
