Linking a campus Canvas instance to ADAPT via Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) is an automatic process, but requires some activity from the Canvas Administrator (and hence approval from the respective campus).

Procedure

The first is to contact the ADAPT team (via "Contact us" on ADAPT front page) to get a specific URL for their school.

After a campus specific tag is assigned, to link Canvas to ADAPT, the campus Canvas Administrator goes this website:

https://adapt.libretexts.org/lti/canvas/config/my-key

where my-key will have to be manually changed for the specific campus assigned by the ADAPT team. For example, for University of California, Davis this would be:

https://adapt.libretexts.org/lti/can...ig/ucdavis.edu

or for Western Washington University is would be

https://adapt.libretexts.org/lti/can...config/WWU.edu

The procedure is outlined on this page and various elements are pre-populated on the screen and they copy/paste into their Developer Key config form. A video this procedure is below.

Question and concerns about this procedure can be address via info@libretexts.org.
