New Perusall LTI 1.3 Integration Confirm Merge Email

In August of 2024, we upgraded our Perusall integration from LTI 1.1 to LTI 1.3. If you originally set up your Perusall course prior to 9/24 with the LTI 1.1 integration, the first time you launch into Perusall via LTI 1.3 integration, it will prompt you with a one-time "confirm merge" email. This means that your account was originally on a different integration and it is transitioning you to the new one. You will need to confirm the merge and relaunch and will be all set.

Click "Link to Home page" to create a single link to your Perusall course home page.  Or you can link to a specific assignment.

Also, if you originally had a course through the LTI 1.1 integration, that content is still available in your account under "my courses". Teachers can also copy course materials from a 1.1 course to a 1.3 course.

Please Note: If you do not set up the Student Cost to $0 when you first create the Perusall course, your students will not be able to access Perusall. If this happens, please reach out to support@swarthmore.edu so we can contact Perusall Support.
