Create a plugin for Virtual Classroom or Video Assignments

Create a navbar remote plugin or a quicklink remote plugin for Virtual Classroom or Video Assignments.

To create a navbar remote plugin

You must create two separate plugins for Virtual Classroom and Video Assignments features.

From the Admin Tools menu, click Remote Plugins > New Remote Plugin.
From the Plugin Type drop-down menu, select Navbar.
In the Name field, enter the name that you want to appear on the navbar for your integration. For example, Video Assignments or Virtual Classroom.
In the Launch Point URL field, enter the URL from the Tool Provider instance and do the following:
- To create the Virtual Classroom plugin, add /connect?action=virtual_classroom to the end of the URL.
  For example, https://na.bongo.com/lti/sample/connect?action=virtual_classroom.
- To create the Video Assignments plugin, add /connect?action=video_assignment to the end of the URL.
  For example, https://na.bongo.com/lti/sample/connect?action=video_assignment.
Leave the LTI Key and LTI Secret fields blank to use the key and secret specified in the tool provider entry.
Note: In the OAuth Signature Method field, specify HMAC-SHA1 as the cryptographic hash function. HMAC-SHA256 is the default value.
To specify a small icon, in the Icon URL field, do either of the following:
- If you are creating a plugin for Virtual Classroom, enter https://s.brightspace.com/lib/nav-icons/1.0.0/virtual-classroom.svg
- If you are creating a plugin for Video Assignments, enter https://s.brightspace.com/lib/nav-icons/1.0.0/video-assignment.svg
To specify a large icon, in the Icon URL field, do either of the following:
- If you are creating a plugin for Virtual Classroom, enter https://s.brightspace.com/lib/nav-icons/1.0.0/virtual-classroom.svg
- If you are creating a plugin for Video Assignments, enter https://s.brightspace.com/lib/nav-icons/1.0.0/video-assignment.svg
Note: Although navbar remote plugins include fields for large and small icons, the navbar supports one icon size. For your navbar, choose the icon size that best suits the user experience for your organization.
Click Add Org Units and select the same sharing criteria you used when reviewing the tool provider entry. Click Insert.
Click Save.
