Configuring Avalon as an LTI tool in an LMS provides for course-specific access and customized content LMS. To access course items, a user can log into their LMS, click on an external tool link, and be redirected to a special Avalon context that only shows items authorized for the course. As part of the redirect, Avalon gathers course and user information verified by OAuth. Using the course ID, Avalon customizes the landing page for the user to only show items listed for that course.

After using the LTI tool, a user will still be logged in under that context when using the same Avalon instance in the same browser. If this occurs, please log out and back in under your normal user account to restore access. |
