Hi ,
I am working with LTI Integration with canvas. I have doubt in fetching the user data from the canvas.
I setup an LTI and I need help in getting the email id of the user(logged in user) from the canvas to bind it in the LTI.
I have passed the required LTI parameter and some LTI parameters works and the LTI parameters such as email parameters and user name parameters are not working as expected.
I need some guidance in fetching the user details from canvas to my LTI. Thanks for your help in advance.
This isn't really my area of comfort.. but I figured I'd mention you're likely to get more help if you can describe your setup, what libraries (if any) you're using, and otherwise describe what's not working... from this description it's not clear if you have a web server issue, oauth/lti issue, php issue, or canvas configuration problem. It traverses what some people might consider two or three different skill sets or types of administrators.
We are giving the Canvas Admins area a little bit of love (especially questions that are really, really old) and just want to check in with you. This will also bring this question new attention.
Were you able to find an answer to your question? I am going to go ahead and mark this question as answered because there hasn't been any more activity in a while so I assume that you have the information that you need. If you still have a question about this or if you have information that you would like to share with the community, by all means, please do come back and leave a comment. Also, if this question has been answered by one of the previous replies, please feel free to mark that answer as correct.
