LSE Moodle LTI 1.3 Platform
LSE runs its own Moodle virtual learning environment at moodle.lse.ac.uk on its own registrable domain, resolving directly to AWS with no vendor CNAME (managed hosting is provided by Catalyst IT, a Moodle Partner, but the LTI issuer, the signing keys and the SAML SP entity are LSE's own). It exposes the IMS LTI 1.3 / LTI Advantage platform endpoints an external tool integrates against: a live JWKS at /mod/lti/certs.php returning one RSA RS256 key, an OAuth 2.0 client-credentials token endpoint at /mod/lti/token.php, and the OIDC third-party-initiated login endpoint at /mod/lti/auth.php. Tool registration is closed and held by LSE; there is no public self-service onboarding and no .well-known discovery document. A SAML2 service-provider metadata document and a credentialed Moodle Web Services REST endpoint sit alongside it on the same host.
