Canvas Guides Chapter on LTI

Adding external apps requires you to add the app into your Course Settings.

NOTE: Some apps require paid subscriptions.

The Redirect Tool lets you add a link to the left-hand navigation in your course. You can redirect to any web resource that allows framed-in content.

Not every web resource permits content framing. You may find that adding a web resource will cause your course to behave in unexpected ways (mostly redirecting the browser to some home page or warning message).
Scripting and dynamic content on the page will prevent the resource from rendering within Canvas. All students will see is a big, blank screen, unless the content is being served via secure protocol (https, as opposed to http). This is an issue caused by browsers, which block mixed-security content in pages. All major browsers do this.
Use this technique sparingly. Navigation overload can make it difficult for students to locate the information that they're looking for.
