# LTI 1.1

> Although Synap supports LTI 1.1, we recommend [LTI 1.3 / Advantage](/doc/integrations/lti/lti1.3-advantage.md) if your platform supports this.

### Configure LTI 1.1

#### Step 1. Go to Portal Settings -> Authentication

You must be logged in as an admin to see this page.

Your organisation must also have **Single Sign-On (SSO)** in your subscription plan to set up LTI.

#### Step 3. Fill in the form

* **Name (required):** Enter a description such as "LTI with LMS". This is only for record keeping. Students will not see it.
* Label: Leave this blank.
* **Registration:** Keep this checked. Otherwise, you must import users into Synap before they launch through LTI.
* **Launch URL:** This is the Tool URI your LMS needs when registering Synap as an LTI tool.
* Outcome Service URL *(optional)*: Leave this blank in most cases. Some LMS platforms require it if they do not pass the score passback URL in the launch.

Press **Save**.

#### Step 4. Configure your LMS

After pressing **Save** in Step 3, you will be shown a unique "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret". Please ask your LMS administrator to enter these along with the "Launch URL" to register Synap as an LTI 1.1 Tool in your platform. You can now close the configuration view by pressing the "x" button to the top-right.

### LTI Launch

Once your LMS has registered Synap as an LTI 1.1 Tool Provider, you will need to follow your platform's specific documentation on how to reference LTI tools in your Course / Lesson builders.

We currently support three distinct launches:<br>

* **Content Selection:** Allows instructors to select either an Exam or a Collection as a course item that students can launch into.
* **Exam:** Launches students directly into an Exam Attempt
* **Collection:** Launches students into a specific Collection or Collection Item where they can read notes, view videos and documents, or take practice quizzes.
