The SHMS Learning Tool Integration (LTI) is presented seamlessly within your learning management system (LMS), where you are able to browse and search for resources that you have previously saved. You can integrate the SHMS in your LMS.
The SHMS LTI Tool Provider conforms to the IMS LTI 1.1 Standard. The implementation guide that is developed by IMS provides you with specifications for tools and content to be integrated into your LMS.
Required Parameters
The following parameters must be present in LTI launch request:
- resource_link_id
- tool_consumer_instance_guid
If the launch_presentation_return_url parameter is present it will be used to redirect a user when a resource is selected in the picker interface. Otherwise, user is redirected to resource LTI page.
The SHMS LTI tool does not read custom parameters at this time. If the naming conventions for your basic LTI parameters do not conform exactly to the IMS specification, our LTI tool will not be able to read them.
Mixed Content
Many of the SHMS activity pages which come from external providers are served in http instead of https. There is nothing we can do about this. This causes mixed content errors in most Learning Management Systems. Workarounds for this are available in Firefox and Chrome. Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a simple work around for updated versions of Safari.
