    2. Change the Username Parameter Name to ext_d2l_username (or other parameter if it has been customized in Brightspace).
    3. Click Save.
  3. Within Brightspace:
    1. Go to Admin Tools and select External Learning Tools.
    2. Select New Link.
    3. Enter a title for the link in Title textbox.
