Super Admin has student role in LTI tool

Hi,
I'm working with a user who has a super admin setup (cascading roles) with access to most everything. However, when this user launches an external LTI tool D2L is passing multiple roles - including the lti and context roles of Student - "roles": "urn:lti:instrole:ims/lis/Student,Student,urn:lti:instrole:ims/lis/Instructor,Instructor,urn:lti:instrole:ims/lis/Administrator,Administrator",

This is causing the user to always be logged in as a student rather than an instructor. Why is the student role being added for this permission? Is there a way to remove or change if that role is passed or not?

    Hi @Dirk.C.7959

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

    The user may likely be enrolled in the course as a Student and have a cascading role (like Super Admin or Course Admin) that adds the Instructor and Administrator roles.

    To investigate why the Student role is being included in the LTI launch and explore options to adjust this behavior, we’ll need to examine the user’s role setup and course enrollments more closely. Please submit a support ticket so our team can investigate further and assist you directly.

    Thanks.
