Configure your LTI integration in Turnitin

The registration process for LTI 1.3 in D2L requires you to follow several steps in sequence. The steps require you to input information from Turnitin into D2L Brightspace and then fill in several fields in Turnitin with information from D2L Brightspace.

1. If you are part of a global institution, log in into your Turnitin account via turnitin.com. Alternatively, log in to turnitinuk.com if you are part of a UK institution.
2. Ensure that Administrator view is enabled from the dropdown menu at the top of the screen. If Instructor or Student is selected, please change to Administrator.
   
3. The Unconfigured or Configured button will appear in the Integrations column on the administrator homepage.
   • If an integration has already been configured, select the Configured button and continue with step 4.
     
   • If the integration has not been configured, select the Unconfigured button and continue to step 4.
     
4. Select the LTI 1.3 button to open the configuration page.

5. Select the Get Started button to open the configuration page.
   
   
   • If you already have a pre-existing registration, select the Create new registration button from the registration dashboard.
     
6. Choose Brightspace from the dropdown.
   
7. Name your registration.
   
8. The information that you will need to copy and paste into D2L Brightspace will auto-populate in the Turnitin Feedback Studio section. Please use the Copy button for the relevant field to guarantee it is copied correctly.
   
9. While keeping your Turnitin tab open, open a new window or tab, and log in to Brightspace as an administrator.
10. Select the gear icon, and then select the Manage Extensibility link.
11. Select the LTI Advantage tab, and then select the Register Tool button.
    
12. Choose Standard registration and make sure it is Enabled.
13. Give the tool registration a title. We recommend something identifiable as you'll need to remember it in later steps. You can skip the Description field.
14. Use the Copy button for each field and copy them directly into the fields within Brightspace: Domain, Redirect URL, OpenID Connect Login URL, Keyset URL, and Target Link URI. These fields are directly mirrored in the Turnitin tab you should still have open. 
    
    
15. Under the Extensions section, select the checkboxes for Assignment and Grade Services, Deep Linking, Names and Role Processing Services, and Submission Review.
    
16. Ensure the Send Institution Role checkbox is selected, and then use the Register button to complete the registration in Brightspace.
    
17. A modal will appear on the screen. Don't close this just yet, as you'll need to transfer some of the information into the Turnitin tab.
    
18. Use the Brightspace Registration Details to fill in the mirrored fields in the LMS Details section of the Turnitin tab. These fields are Client ID, Brightspace Keyset URL, OpenID Connect Authentication Endpoint, and Issuer.
    
19. Double-check that all the fields have been completed correctly, and then use the Save button to complete this stage of your registration.
20. If successful, you'll be shown a message that you are 'Nearly there...'. To complete a registration, you'll need to create a dummy assignment to initialize the registration in our database.

Deploy your registration

1. Navigate to the deployment page for your registration.
   • The deployment page can be accessed at the end of the initially configuring the registration from the Manage Extensibility screen by selecting the View Deployments link.
     
   • Alternatively, you can open the Manage Extensibility screen and select your recently configured registration. The link to View Deployments is found at the bottom of the edit page.
     
2. Select the New Deployment button.
   
3. In the Deploy Tool, select the integration you previously configured from the Tool dropdown.
   

4. Again, give the tool a name. This can be the same as what you set during the configuration, or you can give it a new name. Make sure all extension checkboxes are checked.
   
5. In the Security Settings section, select all of the checkboxes except for Anonymous.
6. In the Configuration Settings section, be sure to check the box next to Grades created by LTI will be included in the Final Grade.
   
7. Add any Org Units and their Descendants that will use the tool.

Link the registration

1. Navigate to the Link page for your deployment.
   • On the same screen as the previous step, select the link titled View Links.
   • Alternatively, navigate to Manage Extensibility > LTI Advantage > [Your Tool] > View Deployments > [Your Deployment] > View Links, and select the New Link button.
2. Give the link a name. This name will be visible to instructors when opening LTI.
