Kitaboo Studio is also compatible with the LTI 1.3 ecosystem. As in the case of LTI 1.1, you need to define the Rostering type for securely sharing class rosters and related data for adding LTI 1.3 customers as well. You can either select Kitaboo or OneRoster from the Rostering type dropdown menu. Let’s see how to move forward with either of the two options.

Adding an LTI 1.3 Customer

The level of dependency between the Kitaboo system and its partner and vice-versa while adding an LTI 1.3 customer is slightly higher as compared to adding an LTI 1.1 customer. Let’s see what these dependencies are.

Let us now see how to add an LTI 1.3 customer with Kitaboo as the Rostering type.

1. Sign in with your Enterprise Admin credentials.

2. On the Customers tab, click on +Add Customer.

3. Enter the Profile, Administrator, and Address details of the customer you want to add.

4. Select LTI 1.3 as the Onboarding type from the SSO Source dropdown menu.> Select one of the options from the Rostering type menu.

5. Check the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service box. > Click on Add. We have selected the Kitaboo option from the Rostering type menu in this example.

Once you’ve added an LTI 1.3 customer, the LTI needs to be integrated with the Kitaboo system. Let’s see how to do it.

6. Click on the Customers filter. > Select SSO Type from the list.

7. Click on the SSO Type filter. > Select LTI 1.3 from the list.

8. Click on the More options icon against the customer you’ve added. > Select the Get LTI Key option.

9. Page 1 of 2 of the Registration page. The information related to the highlighted fields, like Client ID, Public Key, Tool URL/Initiate URL, and Redirection URL will be generated by Kitaboo. However more information about the customer will be required for completing the registration process.

10. Click on Update Registration Details to move to the next page.

11. The customer will go to the Admin section of his/her LMS and click the More icon on the tool that represents View configuration details.

NOTE: Configuration details, like Client ID, Authentication Request URL, and Public Keyset URL will be pulled from the LMS and passed on to Kitaboo by the customer.

Let’s see how to extract the configuration details and complete the registration process.
