Using Zoom Whiteboard with LTI Pro

Launching the LTI Pro from within a class section will automatically create a Whiteboard folder. Once the folder is created, instructors can view their Whiteboards by navigating to the top of the LTI Pro app and clicking on the Whiteboards tab.

The first instructor to launch LTI Pro within the class will be the owner of the folder. All students will be added to the folder as a Viewer and all other instructors will be added as an Editor. This setting can be modified at the account level in the LTI Pro configuration page. Instructors can override the permissions for each course.
