LTI Integration Required: This feature is only available for Workspaces with LTI integration set up. Contact support if you need help setting up LTI integration.
For institutions using LMS integration, Workspace Owners can automatically map LMS roles to Nectir roles, streamlining the user management process:
1
Access LMS Integration Settings
Access your Workspace Settings by clicking on the settings icon on the top left, then click LMS Integration on the left sidebar.
2
Configure Role Mappings
On the LMS Integration page, set how each LMS role should map to Nectir roles:
Administrator → Choose mapping for LMS administrators (typically Owner)
Instructor → Choose mapping for LMS instructors (typically Editor)
TA/Designer → Choose mapping for teaching Assistants and course designers
Student → Choose mapping for students (typically Member)
3
Save Your Configuration
Click Save Changes to apply the role mapping configuration.
Benefits of LMS role mapping:
Automatic user provisioning - Users are created with appropriate permissions when they access through the LMS
Consistent permissions - Maintains alignment between LMS and Nectir roles
Reduced manual management - Eliminates the need to individually assign roles to users
Seamless experience - Users receive the right level of access without additional configuration
Important: Role mapping settings only apply to new users who join after the mapping is configured. Existing users will retain their current roles and must be updated manually if needed.
