Description
Simplify the process, for teachers, to add a tool from the edu-apps.org LTI catalog (which is publicly published for Instructor's Canvas teachers) to an External LTI activity.
After applying the attached patch, a Teacher could:
- Browse the edu-apps.org catalog. ("edu apps catalog" screen capture) and Select a tool.
- Copy its configuration xml uri ("copy tool's configuration url" screen capture)
- Paste it into a new text input field "Tool configuration (XML) URL" (leftmost screen capture)
- Click the "+" button (next to the "External tool type" field)
- New window opens up with tool's configuration details (parsed) available on the proper fields. (2nd from the left, screen capture)
- Update the relevant settings and click "Save" to go back into the LTI module settings page to finish setting up the tool.
