      In Moodle, I am able to predefine external tools (LTI) globally on /admin/settings.php?section=modsettinglti. There, I can configure things like consumer secret and custom parameters.

      Then, when I add an external tool (LTI) to a course, I am able to reuse those predefined configuration options.
      Additionally, I am able to set a custom icon for this LTI activity. Unfortunately, I have to set the icon for every LTI activity individually, there is no possibility to predefine LTI icons globally in the external tool configuration.

      I would be grateful if icons could be added to the global external tool configuration.

      Additionally, I think it would make sense to enable users to upload LTI icons with DnD to Moodle instead of having them uploaded somewhere else and configured them with a URL.

      Thanks in advance!
