# Brightspace

This article shows you how to install EXAMIND using LTI in Brightspace.

## Step 1: Send info to EXAMIND

In order for EXAMIND's iframe to load within your Brightspace instance, EXAMIND must white-list your Brightspace domain by adding it to its *content-security-policy* HTTP header. Please send us your production Brightspace Instance URL (example: <https://devcop.brightspace.com>).

Information can be emailed to [**support@examind.io**](mailto:support@examind.io).

Click **Register** and a new tab will open.

{% hint style="info" %}
When registering a tool in Brightspace, a new tab will open and perform several redirects before remaining blank - this is a known issue that doesn't affect proper tool registration. Despite the blank page, your tool will be correctly registered in the system; simply close this tab and return to the `Register a Tool` page to continue.
{% endhint %}

From the **Admin Tools** menu, click **Manage Extensibility**:
