Canvas - Admin Site Institution

(for Aktiv Team)

1. Logon to admin.aktiv.com (Admin Site).

2. Search for the widget named Add New Institution.

3. Create a new Institution as follows:
   • Set a name (the name of the institution).
   • Parent ID is only if this is some child institution of some other parent institution (so typically you can leave this blank).
   • Choose the “Institution Type”.
   • Choose the authentication type.
   • If you choose LTI only, then this enforces SSO over LTI for the users.
   • If you choose APP only, then this means users can only login via email/password.
   • If you choose LTI & APP, then this means users can login either from the LMS or via email/password. - Enter all the known domains for the institution, particularly all the known email address domains of the users. - Enter the LMS URL, for e.g. lms.university.com.

   

4. Next step is to add an LTI Source.
