OAuth 1? :(

[mmitchell]

Hello there,

We've recently run into authentication errors in one of our LTIs probably because the library it uses in OAuth 1.

Everything I read says Canvas uses OAuth 2 and I was aware that they moved primarily to OAuth 2 a while ago but didn't they say OAuth1 would still work?

Did I dream this conversation? Is anyone else still using OAuth 1?

Thanks for your help!

Mike

LTI uses OAuth1, Canvas API uses OAuth2.

We have found some oAuth errors come from non-standard characters in the course title. It is because of the different way some libraries handle the encoding of non-ascii characters in the fields.
