print icon

When a G-W common cartridge is imported into a Canvas course, an External App is automatically added at the course-level. Please follow the steps below to Configure the LTI (G-W External App) at the course level. This app will be labeled "www.g-wonlinetextbooks.com."

 

Important: If you would prefer to configure the app at the site-level (recommended), please visit the following Knowledge Base Article: How to Configure G-W's External App.

 

  1. After importing the Common Cartridge 1.x Package, a message will display showing "Completed" with 1 issue. This means the G-W App will need to be configured.

     
  2. Select Course Settings and then select the Apps tab at the top of the page. Next, select the View App Configurations button.

     
  3. Scroll down to find the www.g-wonlinetextbooks.com app. Select the Gear icon to the right and then select Edit.

    Important: Instructors may not have permissions to delete this app. If you do not see the option to delete, please reach out to your Canvas Administrator for this step.
     
  4. Using the Integration PDF sent with the common cartridge file, set up the External App by entering the requested information seen below:
    • Configuration Type: Manual Entry
    • Name: Enter a desired name for this app (G-W Publisher, G-W App, Goodheart-Willcox)
    • Consumer Key: Copy and paste the Key (Number 2 on the PDF)
    • Shared Secret: Copy and paste the Secret (Number 2 on the PDF)
    • Launch URL: Copy and paste the Launch URL (Number 1 on the PDF)
    • Domain: www.g-wonlinetextbooks.com
    • Privacy: We like to see “Name Only” for troubleshooting purposes, but this is up to the System Administrator/School District
    • Custom Fields: Copy and paste the Custom Parameters (Number 3 on the PDF)
    • Description: If desired, add a description about this App, such as "Use for Common Cartridge/LTI integrations with Goodheart-Willcox Publisher."
       
  5. Select the Submit button.
     
  6. Now you may go to Modules and Activate Your Subscription.
