Schoology

You'll need to be an admin in Flash Reference and a system administrator in Schoology.

Before you start#

In Flash Reference, open Settings → Production and keep your Production Consumer Key and Production Secret at hand. They're your organization's own. The Test tab has a second key and secret, for a test copy of Schoology.

Add Flash Reference to Schoology#

1. As a system administrator, go to Tools → School Management → Integration → External Tools and select Add External Tool Provider.
2. Enter:
   • Tool Name: Flash Reference
   • Consumer Key and Shared Secret: your Production Consumer Key and Secret
   • Privacy: Send Name and Email/Username of user who launches the tool
   • Configuration Type: Manual
   • Match By: Domain, with flash-reference.com
3. Select Submit.

Adding decks to a course#

With an LTI 1.1 connection, each deck needs its own link in Schoology. Contact us and we'll help set those links up. With LTI 1.3 (below), teachers choose decks from a list instead.

LTI 1.3#

Schoology can also connect with LTI 1.3, which lets teachers pick decks from a list:

1. Create an LTI 1.3 App under App Center → My Developer Apps, with the details in Another LMS with LTI 1.3. Turn on Deep Linking, and install the app.
2. In Flash Reference, add Schoology's details under Settings → LTI 1.3 → Connect by hand.

If something looks different#

These steps follow Schoology's own documentation, and menus can differ between versions and setups. If a screen doesn't match, contact us and we'll help.
