Work the way you are used to! You shouldn't have to rewire your workflow to use Urkund.
Urkund is very straight forward to use via e-mail, and many of our clients choose this method to check work for potential plagiarism or to enhance learning. However, our system can also be used to great advantage as an integrated part of a school’s chosen digital learning tool. We support an ever-increasing list of different Learning Management Platforms (LMS) or Virtual Learning Environments (VLE). We also support the Learning Tool Interoperability (LTI) standard and Shibboleth for Single Sign-On (SSO). More that this you can build bespoke integrations with our Web service or Application Programming Interface (API).
Integrates into any learning management system
Integrating Urkund with an existing learning management system (LMS/VLE) extends the value a school already receives without adding complexity whilst increasing the value of the LMS/VLE itself. There are already integrations with more than forty commonly used LMS/VLEs such as Moodle, Blackboard, SchoolSoft, SharePoint and more.
Develop your own integration
In cases where a learning management system brand does not already have integration with Urkund, developers can create one. We offer, free of charge, a full developer’s kit for established suppliers of digital learning environments – both commercial and academic – along with the ability to assist in the process. The average time to build an integration with Urkund’s developer kit is two weeks and our specifications are consistently regarded as clear and logical by those who have used them.
The Urkund web service
Our web service communicates through a REST-based protocol that uses XML or JSON over HTTP. The web service handles functions for the submission of documents and obtaining information about previously submitted documents. The developer’s package contains documentation that clearly describes these as well as the requirements and recommendations the integrator needs to relate to. Together, we can deliver a service of consistently high quality that meets the end user’s high expectations. To create an integration, Urkund requires a signed integration agreement, after which we grant access to the developer area of our web service.
Integrations with all common platforms
Below you find a list of all existing integrations available today. Remember that our powerful API and web service with full support for Learning Tool Interoperability standard and Single Sign-On can add platforms fast and secure.
