The Canvas dynamic registration integration method replaces the entire page by default when launching a tool and is therefore not recommended. Please use the manual registration method for now.

Configuring Nectir AI

  1. Within Canvas, navigate to the Admin panel
  2. Go to Developer Keys > + Developer Key > + LTI Registration
  3. Input the following information:
    • Dynamic Registration Tool: https://ai.nectir.io/api/lti13/dynamicRegistration?workspaceId=YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID
      You can find your ID by going to Nectir AI > settings > Copy and paste the ID field
  4. Click Continue
  5. Click Enable & Close
  6. Copy the Client ID under the Details column (for example, “532080000000000615”)

Step 2: Configure Nectir AI into an Account

Access control: as the LMS administrator, you can choose which Canvas accounts to configure Nectir AI into. This controls who can add Nectir AI to their course navigation. Only users within the selected account can use Nectir AI in their courses. This is how you manage and restrict access to Nectir AI across your institution.
  1. Copy the Client ID under the Details column (for example, “532080000000000615”)
  2. With the copied key, go to Admin > Settings > Apps > View App Configurations
  3. Select + App and then select Configuration Type > By Client ID
  4. Paste the Client ID of your configured developer key for Nectir
  5. Select Install

Step 3: Share Client ID with Nectir Team

Send the Client ID to your Nectir team contact so they can complete the integration setup on their end.

Step 4: Test the Integration

Once the Nectir team confirms they have enabled the integration, test it in a Canvas course by following the linking instructions.

Instructor Setup Guide

After completing the LTI integration setup in the preceding section, instructors can follow the Canvas Workspace Setup guide to:
  • Link their Canvas courses to Nectir Groups
  • Configure role mapping
  • Set up roster sync
  • Manage courses across terms

LMS Role Mapping

As the LMS administrator, you can configure how Canvas roles map to Nectir AI roles. This controls what permissions users have within the Nectir AI Workspace. For complete information on configuring LMS role mapping, see LMS Role Mapping in Workspace Management.
