Hi, I want to remove all user from a section of a course using REST API, but API docs only have route to remove single user. Can't use that cause of rate limiter, any other alternative way?
Hey, Has anyone else wanted to use the user_request attribute from the PageView object and found that it appears to be "null" for every page view, regardless of how it was initiated? Cheers Jack
Hi Friends, I have been looking for a low-code platform to use with Canvas, primarily for administrative tasks. Anyone use Microsoft Power Apps and have any insights to share? If you have used another low-code platform with Canvas and have some thoughts on the experience, that would be appreciated too.
Hello! Does anyone know how long a student or teacher has read-only access for after the course or term date ends? I know that when the course end date or term date is set, the course will go to past enrollments. Is there a way to set the time on how long the course is available in past enrollments? Thanks!!
Hi All, I was trying to get User Page View from within Canvas of a particular student and the CSV only show 300 lines of data. I was told by Canvas to use Live API, I ran the /v1/users/{user_id}/page_views but the data I got was even shorter, only 9 instances. I know there is a way to get more than 300 instances but can't…
Hello, We are trying to create reports that include when a student last accessed their course.

I am a student. I am trying to build a tool that optimizes a student's work schedule. For that, I need to pull a student's calendar events. However, I could not find a python API wrapper implementation for this, so I tried to use requests to get the data. Unlike courses data, the base URL…
I am using the free version installed on an ssd machine. It is terribly slow. I will gladly pay to have the problem fixed
Hiya, With the Canvas/Teams integration setup you end up with Teams created that have a reference back to the Canvas course that they belong to. You can lookup details of a Team using the Microsoft Graph API: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/graph-explorer When doing this you can query a Team/Group using and ID…
My company runs a self-hosted Canvas server. The person who administered this system left the company 9-10 months ago. The individual she gave an admin account to apparently has never signed in. Trying the "Don't know your password" function generates no email message for either the user who left the company or this new…
We are looking into adding Microsoft Teams classes to our environment. By default and not configurable this adds itself to EVERY singe course in Canvas. I believe I can use XML to make this disabled in each course menu navigation which would them require teachers to enable it if they wanted to use it. I found this XML tool…
