If you would like to set up the Blackboard integration for an assignment, you will need a LTI-link. This LTI link is generated from Blackboard. Linking your assignment will allow your students to open the assignment through your LMS. Once the assignment has finished, you are also able to send the marks from within Ans.
error_outline You cannot set up an LTI coupling after taking the exam. The participants need to log in through the LMS to finalise the coupling. That way, Ans knows which result in Ans belongs to which student in the LMS.
