Guides LMS Integration Brightspace Asset Processor configuration

Asset Processor configuration LMS

With the tool registered in Brightspace and the Client ID in hand, you’ll now mirror the configuration on the DrillBit side, then come back to Brightspace to create the deployment that makes DrillBit available inside specific courses.

Before you start: you should already have completed Asset Processor registration and saved the Client ID and the URLs from the Tool Details page in Brightspace.

1. Configure Brightspace inside DrillBit

  1. Sign in to your DrillBit Admin account.
  2. From the left sidebar, open Integrations.
  3. Locate the Brightspace tile and toggle the integration ON.
  4. In the configuration panel, paste in the values you copied from the Brightspace Tool Details page.

The fields DrillBit asks for and where to find each one in Brightspace:

Platform URLYour Brightspace site URL, e.g. https://drillbit.d2l-partners.brightspace.com — this is the Issuer on the Tool Details page.
Client IDThe Client ID generated when you registered the tool.
Auth end pointThe OpenID Connect Authentication Endpoint.
Access end pointThe Brightspace OAuth2 Access Token URL.
Keyset end pointThe Brightspace Keyset URL.
MethodPick JWK_SET unless your institution has explicit guidance to use RSA.

Click Submit to save. A success toast confirms the connection, and a Know More link appears on the Brightspace card with all the saved values for later reference.

2. Create a deployment in Brightspace

Back in Brightspace:

  1. Open the Tool Details page for the DrillBit tool you registered.
  2. Click View Deployments, then New Deployment.
  3. Set the deployment’s Name (e.g. “DrillBit plagiarism Tool”) and a short Description.
  4. Make sure Enabled is on.
  5. Under Extensions, confirm the same five extensions are ticked: Assignment and Grade Services, Names and Role Provisioning Services, Platform Notification Service, Asset Processor, and Deep Linking.
  6. Under Security Settings, tick the boxes that send Name (First / Middle / Last), Email, User ID, Username, and Org Defined Id. Also tick Classlist including users not known to this deployment.

3. Configuration settings & substitution parameters

In the Configuration Settings block, tick:

Leave Auto Create Grade Items unticked unless you specifically want every link to create its own grade item.

Re-add the same substitution parameters you set during registration so the deployment passes the same context (user_name, user_id, course_title, resource_title, resource_description, resource_start_time, resource_end_time, resource_submission_end_time).

4. Choose the org units (courses)

  1. Under Make tool available to, click Add Org Units.
  2. Pick the courses (or the whole organisation) where DrillBit should be usable. You can add several — for example, The Organization: drillbit plus a few specific course offerings.
  3. Click Create Deployment.

Brightspace will show a Deployment Id for the deployment you just created — you can keep this for your records, but DrillBit doesn’t need it.

5. Create the link

The deployment makes DrillBit available; the link is what instructors actually attach to assignments.

  1. From the deployment you just created, click View Links.
  2. Click New Link.
  3. Fill in:
    • Name – e.g. “Enable DrillBit”.
    • URLhttps://ltiap.drillbitplagiarismcheck.com/lti/launch
    • Description – e.g. “Use DrillBit in this assignment”.
    • Type – select Asset Processor Assignments.
  4. Make sure Enabled is on, then click Save and Close.
The Type must be set to Asset Processor Assignments. If it’s left as the default LTI link type, instructors won’t see DrillBit listed under Turnitin Integration when adding it to an assignment.
Configuration done. Continue to Using the Asset Processor to attach DrillBit to a Brightspace assignment and walk through the student / instructor / admin views.
