Get started with Brightspace Apps

Brightspace Apps provides a centralized experience where administrators can discover approved partner apps, install them in Brightspace, and manage deployments for their organization. Brightspace partners can also create and publish apps for use in Find Apps.

The list of available apps is initially limited to selected partners and expands as support for Application Programming Interface (API) becomes available to Brightspace App in future releases.

Certified integration partners can create apps that may include:

An embedded component
IMS context role mapping
Deployment configurations
Default values and help text for each deployment configuration
LTI components

After a partner submits an app for approval, D2L reviews and tests it before publishing it in Find Apps.

Note: Depending on the partner app, you may need to set up Application Programming Interface (API) applications in addition to installing and deploying a partner app in Brightspace App. As with all extensibility tools, consult partner vendors directly for security and privacy details related to their products and integrations.

Locating Brightspace Apps in Brightspace

Brightspace Apps is available from Admin Tools > Manage Extensibility > Apps. Administrators can search Find Apps to discover integrated, third-party solutions, install them, and deploy them to specific org units or the whole organization.
