Add a single Docuseek2 resource to Canvas


Use these instructions to add a single Docuseek2 film to Canvas using LTI. Note that these instructions do not take advantage of Canvas extensions to LTI that greatly simplify using external resources in Canvas. Return to the Integrating Docuseek2 into Canvas page for instructions on integrating Docuseek2 into Canvas using their LTI extensions.

To add a single Docuseek2 film to a Canvas course using LTI, you will need to know the Consumer key, Shared secret and Launch URL for the film.
