Administrating ILIAS as an LTI-Provider
Página general
[ocultar]1 Initial Problem
ILIAS does not support the Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) standard. This article focuses on ILIAS becoming a LTI Tool Provider according to LTI 1.1.
2 Conceptual Summary
Administrating ILIAS as an LTI tool Provider finds a new home in the general Administration Panel.
The new node will show the following tabs:
- Consumers
- Permissions
3 User Interface Modifications
3.1 List of Affected Views
- Dropdown for opening Main Administration Panel
3.2 User Interface Details
The Dropdown for opening Main Administration Panel gets a new LTI entry.
A new administration folder is added for the global LTI settings in ILIAS. This folder has the tabs Consumers and Permissions.
The Consumers tab has a table of globally defined credentials for Tool Consumers. Consumers can be added, edited de/activated and deleted. For each consumer the following settings can be configured:
- Title (required): a title for the tool consumer
- Description: an optional description for this tool consumer
- Prefix (required): a prefix for the username. New ILIAS account will generate usernames with the folowing pattern: CONSUMERPREFIX_USERNAME[COUNTER_IF_NOT_UNIQUE]
- Consumer Key: is defined on object level
- Consumer Secret (required): is defined on object level
- Language: Default language for generated LTI user accounts.
- Active: De/Activation of consumer
- Object Types: A list of object types which are available for this consumer. Nevertheless, instances of the activated object types must be enabled in the object settings.
- Global Role (required): the global role new ILIAS-LTI accounts are assigned to.
The Permissions tab offers access to the LTI-Node in the Administration panel.
A new permission "LTI Administration in Objects" will be introduced. Users with this permission have the possiblity to enable the LTI service for consumers in the object settings.

7 Discussion
JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], July 24, 2017: We highly appreciate this suggestion and schedule it for 5.3 (assumed ILIAS as LTI tool provider is accepted in general). We would like to have the following changes / extensions:
- Secret should be created by ILIAS and not manually
- An overview similar to "Released Courses" in ECS should be offered in the LTI administration
JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], July 31, 2017: After acceptance of New Objects-Settings for LTI-Provider this feature request can be scheduled for 5.3.
8 Implementation
The Administration of the LTI-Provider was implemented as described at ‘User Interface Modifications’.
In addition all objects used by LTI are listed at ‘Shared Objects’:
It is recommended to create global roles specifically for LTI to adjust rights and to restrict access to full repository path.
