    Learning Management System Integration

    Zosimos can be connected with your existing Learning Management System (LMS) that supports LTI 1.3. Using Zosimos in an LMS like Canvas or Moodle requires a subscription. To obtain such a subscription, please send an email containing the type of your LMS system, the number of your students and the beginning and end dates of the requested subscription to zosimos-support@chemaxon.com. Later on we will also ask for some technical details from your system administrator to connect Zosimos with your LMS.

    In order for Zosimos to work correctly as an LTI tool, the following permissions are necessary:

    • Access to user's name and email
    • IMS LTI Assignment and Grade Services (LineItem and Score services)
    • IMS LTI Names and Role Provisioning
