LTI Custom Parameters and Passing the Username

Has anyone found a solution for this?

We have an LTI tool that pulls moodle username. There is a fix to the moodle code that will enable this but as we don't have access to the code, is there a way to manage this through UI/custom parameters? 

Many thanks

Hi all,

I want to send user -> country, user -> ethnicity (custom field) or object -> property to an LTI provider. 

I am able to send a static value by adding into custom parameter section of the external tool. But how can I have a dynamic value be passed through LTI?

I tried as below but no luck.

lis_person_country=$user->country

lis_person_country=$User->country

lis_person_country=$user.country

Your help will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Bhavin

Hi Bhavin, 

Did you ever get this to work?  I am trying to pass a numeric user ID that isn't present in the default LTI launch and I'm wondering if it will be possible via a dynamic value, as you're describing. thanks!
