What is a Canvas App?

A canvas app is an Learning Tool Integration(LTI) to service on the internet. This allows you to add content from the service into <Replace - Your LMS>.<Replace - Your LMS> makes use of tools that are designed to integrate with our existing system, adding functionality that is not part of the core system. These LTIs (Learning Tools Interoperability, often referred to as applications or apps) may be created by a third-party developer, another institution, or right here at <Replace - Institution Name>. If you are aware of an app that could add to existing features within <Replace - Your LMS>, or have a specific need that could be developed in-house, please fill out the Request an Integration form to begin the review process.
