Configure LTI field mapping
LTI field mapping is used to avoid the creation of duplicate records if user records already exist because your organization has been using Möbius before Learning Management System implementation.
This method maps existing users from your Learning Management System to the corresponding existing users in Möbius.
Once the LTI field mapping has been set up between your Learning Management System and Möbius, a user record update in the Learning Management System will then trigger an update to the corresponding record in Möbius.
If there is no existing Möbius user record, a new user record may be created using the information from the Learning Management System, based on the rules you define with LTI field mapping.
The following user details are retrieved by default:
- First name
- Last name
- Role
