Add Links in Canvas LTI Advantage to MindTap Activities

from Canvas™ to activities or other content in MindTap. Linked graded activities are included in the
Canvas gradebook unless you choose to exclude them.
The following procedure is for LTI Advantage integrations.

in your course navigation works, see LTI 1.0.
Open your Canvas course.
