Remove limitations on all plagiarism integrations (Urkund, Turnitin, Citewise etc)

There are a lot of the limitations in the external tool-integration for the plagiarism tools. The most critical is:

- Does not allow group work.

- Does not allow multiple files.

 

So my suggestion is to make those limitations disappear.:

- Allow group work

- Allow multiple file upload

Thank you for submitting this feature idea.  Thank you for marking this as a "partner integration".  That category will ensure that this idea is seen by the correct audience.  Most elements of these integrations are not controlled by Canvas, but we can help work with Partners to improve their integrations!

Tnx, but at least the group work limitation seems to be on the canvas-side of the integrations? Because it appears as soon as you choose external tool.

Maybee someone could outlay the technical bit of this idea to help us clarify what has to be done to achieve this?

A lot of the issues that currently exist around Groups are due to the nature of LTI and the limitations about what information is/can be passed from any LMS (not just Canvas) as part of the standard without using extensions or custom plugins.  Later versions of LTI (LTI 2 roster services) can get group membership information but a lot of vendors are yet to implement this.  I believe there will be some significant improvements coming from several vendors on this front soon(ish).
