Part 2: Set up a new tool in Blackboard Ultra (LTI 1.3)

Updated on

Complete these steps in the Blackboard Developer Portal.

This step can only be completed by an LMS administrator and only needs to be completed once per unique course/kit. This will not need to be performed for additional sections of a course. For example, once you set up a BIO 101 course, all of your copies of BIO 101 will already be integrated.

In the instructions below, you will see values highlighted in yellow. That means that these are the exact values that need to be entered into their respective fields.

If you currently have courses integrated in Blackboard using LTI 1.1 and have active courses using an LTI 1.1 connection, completing this part of LTI 1.3 setup will disable their use as Blackboard does not allow LTI 1.1 and 1.3 integrations to work at the same time.
