Thanks for the explanation. That will explain why I had to tinker with Sakai to get the membership service to work.
There's no need to expedite the release on our behalf, but I will make enquiries about the membership service with Canvas.
Thanks again
Jon

Subject: Re: Canvas LTI
In order for you to be able to synchronise users between the VLE and WebPA, the former must support the unofficial memberships service (see https://www.imsglobal.org/ext_membership.html). Either your instance of Canvas does not support this service, or it has not been enabled.
The next release of the WebPA integration will include support for the official LTI Membership service (see
http://www.imsglobal.org/specs/ltimemv1p0) but I don't know if this is supported by Canvas yet. Let me know if this would help you and I will try to expedite the release of the updated version.
Note, the documentation for the LTI connector for WebPA can be found at http://www.spvsoftwareproducts.com/php/webpa-lti/.
HTH,
