Table of Contents

1. Introduction

In the IMS LTI standard, a Tool may attach settings to certain resources within the Tool Consumer system. This specification defines a simple JSON representation for such Tool Settings. This representation is simple in the sense that it presents a flat listing of properties within a single JSON object. In this representation, it is not possible to identify the container within which any particular property is stored.

Figure 1 shows the representation of a resource in the application/vnd.ims.lti.v2.toolsettings.simple+json format.
