IsDeleted flag in LTI Links table and inclusion of deleted links - Administrator Documentation

Dear Community,

I hope you can shed some light on my understanding of the LTI Links table in the LTI Data sets.

I was analyzing the usage of LTI links. I have joined the LtiLinks table with the LTILaunches on LTILinkId and LtiLinkId. After joining, I have realised that many links were missing in the LtiLinks table, which were present in the LTILaunches.

The documentation specifies that "It does not include deleted links"

At the same time, in the table, there is column "IsDeleted" which indicates if the LTI Link is deleted.

Therefore, my question:

Does the LTI Links table include deleted links or not?

From the data perspective, I see that it both contains and does not contain deleted links - in the IsDeleted I have both True and False values, and I also have missing data in the LTI Links that exists in LTI Launches. Now, I am uncertain if there is a bug in our data, or if I understand the set up of the data incorrectly.
I can see that some LTILinks were launched yesterday, but the LtiLinkId does not exist in the LTILinks.

Thank you in advance,

Zuzanna

  • Hi @Zuzanna.G.8744, thank you for reaching out to the Brightspace Community.

    I’ve reviewed the issue, and it appears the documentation needs to be updated. The dataset named LTI Links includes information about deleted LTI links. Our LTI team will revise the documentation to ensure it reflects accurate information.

    Regarding the LTI links that aren’t appearing in the dataset, could you provide more details so I can assist you further? Are they still missing from the data set?

    Thanks,
