Prerequisites for configuring LTI 1.3 Assignment Tool
The owner and admin of UNIVERSE account have configured tool permission while the teacher only has permission to add new assignments.
Don’t register this configuration more than once in your Canvas platform. Only the first one would be valid to use. If the admin wants to remove this tool, just delete them from developer key lists and contact your instructors to remove assignments related to this tool.
Launching the tool and opening UNIVERSE successfully requires users to download the newest version of UNIVERSE and open it at least once.
