Hi, I'm new to LTI and to PHP in general. I have a basic LTI working locally. When I try to use with Canvas I get the oauth_consumer_key from $_REQUEST but I don't know how to get the secret. Is there something basic I'm missing or that I have to call in order to get that to match against my database?
Anything that helps is appreciated. Thanks!

Your tool should know its secret. You provide the shared secret to the consumer (Canvas). This is how the security works for basic LTI.
If you are just starting out, you might be better going straight to LTI 1.3 as 1.1 is deprecated.
