Can you create a dynamic iFrame URL using student user ids?

unknown

I'm a new Canvas admin and am trying to figure if I can annotate iFrame URLs with user information. I have a survey that I'd like to embed in a Canvas page; the first question is hidden and ideally would populate with the student's Canvas user ID. Theoretically, the HTML content of the page would look like the following, but the portion in pink would be dynamic to the viewing user's ID. Is this something that (1) is doable in Canvas and (2) someone with limited API/LTI knowledge would be able to easily implement? Thanks!

How does "Participation: Course" + manually input start/end dates play with Course Pacing?
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
