New Features

Impact LTI
Summary
Admins can access Impact by configuring the Impact LTI in Canvas, either from the Account Navigation menu or the stand-alone site.
For institutions that would like to require admins to access Impact only through LTI launch, please first configure the LTI following the steps in the How do I configure LTI single sign-on for Impact as an admin?, and then submit a support request to the Impact Support Team requesting the Forced LTI configuration.
Note: LTI configuration must be configured prior to the Support Team configuring the Forced LTI option.
Change Benefit
- Native Workflow: Allows admins to utilize Impact natively within current workflows.
- Flexible Access: Admins can launch through the LTI or open the stand-alone site, whichever fits setup.
Feature Workflow
For Subscription Admins to access the configuration, click the Settings icon [1]. Then, click the Single sign-on tab [2] and follow the steps outlined in the guide How do I configure LTI single sign-on for Impact as an admin? [3].
