For cases in which you have created a copy of a Canvas course and need to create a copy of the Vocareum course previously associated with the original Canvas course. This process will preserve the LTI links, and have them redirect to the new Vocareum course.

LTI App Configuration

  • From your Canvas Admin settings, navigate to the Developer Key that was created/configured for Vocareum (as covered in this guide).
    ​

  • Find the Developer Key and under 'Actions' select 'Edit this key'. Scroll down to Additional Settings and open the dropdown to find 'Custom Fields'. Add a value in the Custom Fields block with the following format:

lms_courseid=$Canvas.course.id

  • Save Changes

Cloning A Vocareum Course from Canvas

  • Within a new Canvas course, select 'Vocareum' from the course navigation menu.​

  • Because no Vocareum courses are already connected to this Canvas course you'll be given a choice of three actions. For our purposes you will need to select 'Clone a Vocareum Course and Redirect LTI Links'

  • Once the Deep Linking Tool opens, search for the Vocareum course that the parent Canvas course was associated with and click 'Clone and Redirect':

Once the new Vocareum course clone is created, all LTI-related resources/links should now be redirected to the Canvas course.
