An LTI link in Schoology can be set up at either the course level or the institution level. We recommend the institution level if given a choice, as it ensures consistency, centralized troubleshooting, and ease of addition in subsequent terms.
To add an institution level, you must have an Enterprise Schoology subscription and hold a role that allows you to install LTI Integrations in the System Settings.
Institution Level Setup - Installation Instructions
From the Home screen, from the left-hand menu, click System Settings.
From the same left-hand menu, click Integration.
From the Integration page's top menu bar, click the External Tools tab.
Click the Add External Tool Provider button.
Fill in the tool information:
- Tool Name: A name that clearly identifies Portfolium. Suggested: Portfolium LTI
- Consumer Key: Provided by Portfolium
- Shared Secret: Provided by Portfolium (check for leading or trailing spaces)
- Privacy: Leave as default (Send Name and Email/Username of user who launches the tool)
- Configuration Type: Manual
- Match By: URL
- Domain/URL:
https://portfolium.com/lti/launch - Custom Parameters: None
Click the Submit button at the bottom. To edit any of the settings later, click the tool name in the list.
Institution Level Setup - Adding as a Materials Item
Navigate to the course and confirm you are in the Materials section.
Navigate to the folder where you want to add the link or remain on the main page.
