What’s an LTI?
A simple and cheap way to connect your LMS to external tools without complicated
integrations or double authentication.

LTI Consumer (LMS)
LTI Provider (Tools)
Two main components of LTI

Why LTI?
● Writing integrations for third-party tools is a nightmare
o Allows for faster and cheaper integration
● Seamless user experience
o Users stay in the LMS while accessing external tools
● Central ITS processes often can’t keep up with great external tools
o Allows easier piloting or small scaling

A Hash of user data and environmental info is sent from the Consumer to the Provider
The Provider verifies the OAuth connection with the sent key and the agreed upon secret
The Provider then allows the Consumer access to it’s resources based on the user and environmental data sent
LTI 1.0 is one way OAuth 1.0 vouching for passing standardized structured data
LTI 1.0
![Page 8: Just fire lti at it!](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/557bf8e4d8b42a2b348b527e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Same as LTI 1.0-Hash is sent-OAuth is verified-Access is granted
LTI 1.1 is two way OAuth 1.0 vouching for sending standardized structured data to the Provider and Grades back to the Consumer
LTI 1.1
But now the Provider can pass Grades back to the Consumer typically based on the user and environmental data initially sent to the provider

Newest version of LTI
Final specs released Jan 2014
Similar initial launch as LTI 1.0 & 1.1
Supports rich and complex REST based two way communication between your Consumer and Provider
Allows provisions space for Providers to store data in your Consumer
LTI 2.0?
