Integrating Cadmus + D2L Brightspace

Follow these steps to integrate Cadmus as an external tool in D2L Brightspace using LTI 1.3

Cadmus supports the following LTI 1.3 enabled integrations:

1. Launching into Cadmus as a configured external LTI Tool / Application. 

2. Grade pass-back through the LTI 1.3 Assignment and Grade Services.

3. LTI Membership service (Names and Role Provisioning Services) for Student list synchronisation between Cadmus and the LMS.

To integrate Cadmus and D2L Brightspace, you will need to:

1. Register Cadmus as an External Tool
2. Deploy Cadmus as an External Learning Tool
3. Share keys with Cadmus

The Client ID and Deployment ID generated through this process must be shared with Cadmus to complete the integration.
