Canvas, like many LMSs, supports loading external resources inline using the IMS LTI standard. These tools can be configured on a course or account level, and can be added to course modules or used to create custom assignments (see the LTI Outcomes service for more information on that). Canvas supports some additional integration points using LTI to offer a more integrated experience and to allow for more customization of the Canvas product, even in a cloud environment. This is accomplished by configuring additional settings on external tools used inside of Canvas.
