We are trying to find out who is actively using the MS Teams/O365 integrations. I can find out which courses have the "Teams Assignments" in the Course Navigation. Unfortunately, it was added by default to alot of courses. So we're only trying to find those that have the Integrations > Microsoft Sync State enabled at the…
Anyone had any success with integrating Canvas with PowerBI? Our analytics team would like to be able to grab info out of Canvas easily. Thanks!
Is the data from New Quizzes available in CD2? If so, in which table(s)?
When using Data Services, you can choose to have the request signed and get a JWT payload. However, Canvas Data Services still sends the request with "Content-Type: application/json", whereas it should be "Content-Type: text/plain". Canvas Data Services is not part of the canvas-lms github repo, so where should I report…
I recently (18 March 2025) started getting a typing error when fetching jobs from snapshot queries using the python client library. I haven't changed anything since I started getting this error, so I'm inclined to believe there is an issue with the typing logic. This is my stacktrace: File…
It occurs intermittently during individual table syncs. 2025-03-11 06:15:19,229 - DEBUG course_account_associations table has been updated 2025-03-11 06:54:49,916 - DEBUG enrollments table has been updated 2025-03-11 07:33:28,644 - DEBUG course_sections table has been updated 2025-03-11 08:12:36,144 - DEBUG courses table…
Hi all, Hoping someone can assist. I am currently working on identifying a assignment due date at an individual student level. When there are multiple overrides set I am having trouble figuring out which override(s) take precedence. Example: a student has an individual override and is enrolled in a section which is also…
Hi, Is there a way to generate the time students spend in Canvas on a weekly basis? The total time is available under the "People" menu; however, I would like to have a summary of time spent and number of logins on a weekly basis. I explored the "New Analytics" report; unfortunately the New Analytics reports do not help me…
Hello, Does anybody know how to set up a custom location for the files downloaded by the dap? Basically need to setup the temporary folder in a much larger drive, instead of the dap using the windows default temp folder for each user. I'd like to change this just for the dap instead of changing the default in windows for…
@sgergely It seems that schema versions for a number of tables in the the canvas namespace have reverted. For example, "rubrics" had been at version 2 in mid February, but shows version 1 when downloaded today from DAP. The following tables seem to have issues: access_tokens assignment_overrides assignments attachments…
We recently did a new snapshot of our catalog tables and noticed that the enrollments table contained duplicates of most records. Other tables seemed OK. Has anyone else noticed duplicate records in snapshots? Thanks.
I'd like the details of these elements to understand what it means and how it's calculated on this API endpoint: https://canvas.instructure.com/doc/api/analytics.html#method.analytics_api.course_student_summaries
Has anyone experience this issue? When we run syncdb to refresh our CD2 enrollments table to postgres, the process hangs and does not finish. All other tables sync successfully. Some enrollments data are being loaded to the database. We can confirm this from using the latest updated_at date on the enrollments table.…
Hi everyone 🙂 Im hoping someone else out there has found a way to resolve this challenge.... Problem definition: We use assignments with rubric assessments for grading, but we want to have visibility of the movements within the rubrics so it is easy to track what assessment judgments were made, by who and when. For…
HI, I'm looking to migrate our CD2 setup from postgres to MSSQL and I'm running into an issue. Does anybody have information on properly setting the DAP for MSSQL server? I'm not finding any information beyond the basic connection string used and i'm getting this error when doing a basic dap init command 2025-02-20…
