You can make learning activities you’ve created in your online academy available in other online learning systems via LTI. Likewise, you can make learning activities from another learning system available in your own online academy using LTI.
LTI handles the entire integration, including user creation, user enrolment, and Single Sign-On. It is also possible to share the progress of activities in your online academy with other online learning systems.
We support the following versions of LTI:
LTI 1.2
LTI 1.3

LTI exam
In addition to making an external e-learning course available in Rakoo via LTI, it is also possible to add a LTI learning activity as an exam in Rakoo. Here’s how to do it:
When creating a new learning activity, select “Exam” and then choose LTI.
Follow the steps described above to make an external activity available from Rakoo.
In the activity settings, set a minimum score. This must be between 1 and 100.
The result of the learning activity will be displayed in Rakoo as “failed” or “passed”, in contrast to “completed” for an e-learning course.
Advanced LTI
It is important that the other learning platform sends along certain data with the LTI. This information is necessary to ensure the user can successfully access and use the learning activities. In most LTI integrations, this is configured correctly by default. For example, with systems like Moodle, no adjustments are needed; the correct data is automatically included.
Are you working with a custom LTI integration? Then it’s important to check whether the following data (parameters) are being sent correctly:
Email
LTI Parameter key: lis_person_contact_email_primary
Required?: Yes
Used for: Finding an existing user or creating a new user
First name
LTI Parameter key: lis_person_name_given
Required?: Yes
Used for: Creating a new user when they do not already exist
Last name
LTI Parameter key: lis_person_name_family
Required?: Yes
Used for: Creating a new user when they do not already exist
User id
LTI Parameter key: user_id
Required?: Yes
Used for: Creating a new user when they do not already exist. The external ID will be created as the ID in your online academy.
