Create the LTI tool

In the LearnWorlds admin panel go to Settings → Integrations → LTI Tools and click Add LTI Tool.

Fill in the RaeNotes URLs

Copy the credentials LearnWorlds generated

Hover over the tool you just created and click Copy URLs. LearnWorlds gives you its client ID, deployment ID and platform URLs. They all live under your school's admin API root and look like this:

Add the platform in RaeNotes

Go to Integrations → Add LTI Platform and paste the LearnWorlds values into Issuer, Client ID, Deployment ID, Authentication request URL, Access token URL and Key Set URL. Then choose the Team students will join — this cannot be changed later.

Choose the workflow

For Upload only you are done — click Add and skip to Part 3.

For Self-assessment with supervisor feedback, set Instructor email source to LearnWorlds webhook integration. LearnWorlds cannot put custom data into an LTI launch, so the instructor's email has to arrive separately. Click Add to save.

Reopen the platform and copy the Webhook URL

Click the pencil icon on the platform you just created. The Webhook URL is generated when the platform is saved, so it only appears in edit mode. It stays the same for the life of the platform — deleting the platform and registering it again produces a different URL, which you would then have to update in LearnWorlds.

Create a Graded LTI activity

Open the course, go to the Course Outline, click Add Activity and choose Exams → Graded LTI. In the activity settings select the RaeNotes LTI integration, enter the RaeNotes launch URL (https://app.raenotes.com/lti/launch) as the content link, set a passing grade, and save.

Expect the break-out page

LearnWorlds always embeds LTI tools in an iframe. RaeNotes detects this and shows a small page inside the frame with a button that reopens RaeNotes in a new browser tab, where the session works normally. This is expected behaviour, not an error — tell your students to click the button.

Decide how the instructor is chosen

A common pattern is a custom form where the learner picks their coach; the answer updates the learner's tags, and the tag change is what triggers the automation. Any trigger works as long as it fires once the instructor for that learner is known.

Build the automation

Go to Users → Automations and create an automation. Use the event above as the trigger (for example, user tags updated) and add Send a Webhook as the action.

Point the webhook at RaeNotes

• URL — the Webhook URL you copied in step 6.
• Payload — must contain the instructor's email as a top-level property named exactly like the Instructor email property field in RaeNotes (default instructor_email).
• LearnWorlds automation payloads already include the learner's user object. RaeNotes uses user.id — the same identifier LearnWorlds sends as the LTI subject — to know which student the instructor belongs to, so you don't need to add anything else.

Configure the signature token

Copy your school's webhook signature token from Settings → Developers → Webhooks in LearnWorlds and paste it into LearnWorlds signature token in the RaeNotes platform dialog.

Every LearnWorlds delivery is signed with this token. Until RaeNotes has a matching value it rejects all deliveries, so the automation appears to run while nothing reaches RaeNotes.

Don't worry about timing

The instructor mapping is stored per student, so the webhook can arrive at any point:

• Before the student's first launch — it is applied on that launch.
• While a recording is processing — the live assignment is updated and the review is created when processing finishes.
• After processing — the review is created without another launch.

A later delivery for the same student replaces the earlier instructor.
