Where do I enable instructor access?

As a root account admin, you can manage surveys that can be used by all instructors of your institute. However, in some cases, instructors might want to use their own surveys. Start by going to the 'Menu' (1) button and from the dropdown chose 'Set-up' (2).

Here you will see an overview of the Qualtrics domains. For each domain you can see if personal surveys are enabled (3). If you want to enable or disable the instructor (personal) surveys for a certain domain you can click on the edit button (4).

Set up instructor access

Click on the pencil icon to edit the Qualtrics domain settings (number 4 in the image above). In the edit screen you can enable the instructor (personal) surveys. 

After you enabled instructor access there are a few things you need to do:

• Make sure that the instructors in your institute are allowed to use API calls. Contact your Qualtrics brand admin regarding information about this permission.
  
  

• Fill in the support email field (5). This way instructors can contact your institute's support in case of problems using the Qualtrics LTI.
  
  

• Ask your Qualtrics brand admin to create an OAuth Client for the Qualtrics LTI.

  • The grand type should be Authorization Code

  • The redirect URL of the token should be: https://qualtrics.drieam.com/qualtrics/oauth2/callback

  • The scopes should be: manage:surveys, manage:survey_responses
    
    

• Put the OAuth ID (6) and OAuth secret (7) you get from your Qualtrics brand admin in the corresponding fields.

• Put the OAuth2 Scopes, manage:surveys manage:survey_responses, (separated by a space) in the corresponding field (8).
  
  

• Click the “Save” button.
  

After the setup

After the setup, instructors can find their personal surveys and access the Qualtrics LTI under “Account” (1) in the Canvas global navigation menu. Instructors can then start adding their Qualtrics surveys to the Qualtrics LTI, and then add them as assignments in their Canvas courses.
