Preview the new Microsoft 365 LTI® for your LMS
Enhance your LMS with the power of Microsoft 365 We are excited to announce the public preview of Microsoft 365 LTI. Experience the full potential of Microsoft 365 directly within your Learning Management System (LMS) through a simple to integrate learning tool interoperability (LTI). Microsoft 365 LTI makes LMS integrations simple, with a powerful tool designed to introduce new capabilities to streamline and simplify deployment. Deploy and access the new Microsoft 365 LTI in your LMS with the overview and deployment guides. At-a-glance: The Microsoft 365 LTI is now in Public Preview, bringing all your favorite Microsoft Education tools into a single, seamless experience inside your LMS. No more juggling multiple integrations - just streamlined access to everything educators and students need, right where they work. This includes: Unified access to OneDrive, Teams, Class Notebook, Reflect, and more, directly in your LMS Add content, create assignments, and schedule meetings - all from one place No need to enable multiple tools separately or clutter your LMS menus Replaces deprecated Teams Meetings and Team Classes LTI tools Expanding support for Microsoft Assignments, OneDrive, OneNote Class Notebooks, and Reflect Available for Canvas, Schoology, Blackboard, D2L Brightspace, Moodle, and more Let’s dive into the new Microsoft 365 LTI to streamline your learning management system experience We are bringing our Microsoft Education capabilities for learning management systems together into a single tool and streamlined user experience. Educators will be able to access Learning Accelerators, Reflect, OneDrive, Teams, and more in their LMS courses, without having to enable multiple tools separately, and without overcrowding menus where LTI tools are surfaced. Whether adding content to a module, creating an assignment, or scheduling a meeting for a class, you will be able to easily access Microsoft Education related features directly in your LMS workflow. Microsoft 365 LTI debuts with replacements for the deprecated Teams Meetings and Team Classes LTI tools that sunset on 9/15/2025. The capabilities of Microsoft Assignments, OneDrive, OneNote Class Notebooks, and Reflect will also be added to the Microsoft 365 LTI in preview, and those existing LTIs will continue to be supported as their capabilities transition. Microsoft 365 LTI will be available for all currently supported LMS platforms, including Canvas by Instructure, PowerSchool Schoology Learning, Blackboard by Anthology, D2L/Brightspace, and Moodle™, and for any LTI 1.3 Advantage compliant platform. Learning Accelerators and AI-enhanced assignments in your LMS (without Microsoft Teams) With the Microsoft 365 LTI, you will be able to use Learning Accelerators, multiple-document submissions, AI rubric and instructions generation, AI-assisted feedback, auto-graded Forms and other Microsoft Education assignment capabilities directly within your learning management system (LMS), without the need to create and sync a Microsoft Team for your class. Assignments in Microsoft 365 LTI no longer require Teams, enabling more LMS users to benefit from advanced, AI-enhanced capabilities that were formerly exclusive to Microsoft Teams for Education. Assignments can be created, managed, completed, and graded, without leaving your LMS, and grades and feedback will sync automatically to the LMS gradebook. This capability is included automatically in the new Microsoft 365 LTI tool. Existing, Teams-based assignments will continue to work and can be copied to new courses, so no migration is necessary. This enhancement will apply to all currently supported LMS platforms, including Canvas, Schoology, Blackboard, D2L Brightspace, and Moodle. Teams and Teams Meetings Microsoft 365 LTI replaces the former Teams Classes LTI and Teams Meetings LTI tools, with improved user experience. Users can easily schedule, manage, and launch meetings from directly within their LMS course. The tool provides streamlined views of future and past meetings, consolidated attendance reports, and a new “Meet Now” capability. Automatic rostering in Class Notebooks returns with the Microsoft 365 LTI In March, we announced the retirement of automatically adding newly rostered students and co-educators to OneNote Class Notebooks provisioned through the LMS using the LTI 1.1 integration. This much-loved feature is back in the new Class Notebook app in Microsoft 365 LTI. Any instructor in the LMS course can create a Class Notebook and all co-educators and students automatically added to the notebook, even as the LMS roster changes. In addition, the new integration enables OneNote with the benefits of LTI 1.3 conformance and a modernized provisioning flow for educators to easily deploy new Class Notebooks for their courses. Existing notebooks created in the LTI 1.1 integration will continue to work, and sections and pages can be easily copied to new notebooks. OneDrive and Microsoft 365 files with embedded editors and new placements The new Microsoft 365 LTI tool expands beyond the capabilities of the existing OneDrive LTI tool. The full capabilities of Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, including Microsoft 365 Copilot, are now available within the LMS experience for attaching content resources, collaborative documents (including Collaborations for Canvas Courses and Groups!), and students editing and submitting Microsoft 365 documents as an assignment without leaving the LMS. Documents can be embedded or linked into courses and other LMS activities like discussions, announcements, pages, with proper management of permissions to prevent oversharing, and with dedicated course-level storage to support proper document lifecycle management, assignment workflows, and use of Microsoft 365 Copilot. Easily add Reflect to your classroom toolset Microsoft 365 LTI provides easy access to Microsoft Reflect to support student wellbeing in the classroom. Educators can create check-ins, view responses, and monitor trends within an LMS course. Users can access activities from Microsoft and partners such as Calm to support physical and mental wellbeing.

How to resolve "Failed to submit this app" error?
Hi Team, Just from Today, while submitting teams custom app via Developer Portal, error "Failed to submit this app." started to occur. I have tried with below condition but this error always occurs. Error also occurs on the app which we can submit update till yesterday. What is happening and how can we resolve it? (from this error message, we couldn't guess anything about the reason..) Checked: ・Publish from outside Developer Portal (apps > manage apps > send app to organization) succeeded so seems Developer Portal related Issue. ・For all apps, no validation error in "Publish to store" is found. Manifest itself seems to be fine. ・Create new custom app with minimum configuration and publish but failed with same error. ・Tried publish from both Teams client and Browser but failed with same error. ・Try same operation with different tenant but failed with same error.
