Griffith Canvas LMS (Instructure) — LTI 1.3 and REST

Griffith operates an Instructure Canvas learning management system at lms.griffith.edu.au. The tenancy exposes two publicly fetchable machine-readable surfaces — an LTI 1.3 platform JWKS at /api/lti/security/jwks and an OpenID Connect discovery document at /.well-known/openid-configuration with issuer https://lms.griffith.edu.au. The Canvas REST API itself is live but authenticated — /api/v1/accounts and /api/v1/users/self both return 401, while the bare /api/v1 base returns 404, so no baseURL pointer is recorded. Instructure has noted the per-tenant API documentation will redirect to its central developer portal after 2026-07-01.
