Setting up Particify in Stud.IP

Particify’s Stud.IP integration is based on the LTI 1.3 standard, is set up once, and then makes Particify available in every course.

General

In Stud.IP, Particify is registered by hand as an LTI tool; we provide the URLs you need for it. Your system administration does this once, and we complete the connection together with you. We have tested with Stud.IP 6.1.1.

Stud.IP is used almost exclusively at German-speaking institutions, so field and menu names are quoted below exactly as they appear on screen, in German.

1. Setup

1. Register the tool

Open Admin > System > LTI-Tools, choose Neues LTI-Tool registrieren and enter the following values:

  • LTI-Version: 1.3a

  • LTI-Launch-URL: the launch URL of your instance

  • OIDC-Login-URL: the login initiation URL of your instance

  • Deep-linking URL: the login initiation URL of your instance

  • JWKS-URL: the JWKS URL of your instance

  • Personendaten an das LTI-Tool senden: Ja

Without the personal data, starting Particify from a course fails, and without the deep linking URL Stud.IP offers no room selection.

2. Complete the connection

Copy the Deployment-ID that Stud.IP generated from the list of configured LTI tools and send it to us. We store it in your instance and enable the connection. Once we have confirmed this, Particify is available in your courses.

2. Using it in a course

Enable the tool

In their course, teachers enable the LTI-Tools tool under Verwaltung. A tab of the same name then appears.

Link a room

Via Tool mittels LTI Deep Linking hinzufügen they select Particify and then choose which of their rooms to link. If there is no suitable room yet, they can create one in Particify first.

Starting from the course

Anwendung starten then takes teachers and participants into the room.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Particify need the email address?
Particify matches access from a course to an account by email address. Without it, starting Particify from the course fails. This is why Personendaten an das LTI-Tool senden has to be enabled.
No room selection is offered when linking the tool – why?
The Deep-linking URL field is empty. Stud.IP only offers the selection when that field is filled; it holds the same URL as OIDC-Login-URL.
The “LTI-Tools” tab is missing in the course.
The tool has to be enabled per course. Open Verwaltung and enable LTI-Tools there.
Is there an automatic registration like in Moodle and ILIAS?
Not yet – Stud.IP is already planning support for dynamic registration. Until then, the setup is done manually with the values described above.
