For Admin: Install LTI 1.3
- LMS integrations are only included for PlayPosit clients with institutional licenses. Please contact partnerships@playposit.org for more information on the institutional license.
- For current PlayPosit LTI 1.1 users, once the LTI 1.3 tool is installed, all bulb/playlist links will automatically migrate to LTI 1.3 when an assignment is clicked. This means that bulbs/playlists will not need to be relinked manually. The workflow was designed to automatically relink bulbs/playlists with the new tool on the backend.
- If an assignment does not migrate automatically, the bulb/playlist can be relinked manually.

Before instructors can use PlayPosit, it must be configured globally for your LMS by an administrator. Please find instructions specific to your LMS below. As soon as the global configuration is complete, instructors can start using PlayPosit in their courses. Details about how they do this are here.
