Hi, In relation to this posthttps://community.canvaslms.com/message/53737-canvas-terms-of-service-use-acceptance I'm trying to create user accounts via REST API, but cannot convince Canvas to prompt the user to accept TOS when she firstly logs in. I tried all possible combinations of user[terms_of_use], force_validations, and pseudonym[force_self_registration] parameters, but nothing has worked. We have institutionally licensed instance of Canvas (not the free version), as is the case in the mentioned post. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi @tomaz_turk and Welcome to the Canvas Community,
We utilise the rest API for creating accounts at our institution, and I know that (by default) if we do not include any details in the terms of use field, by default, new users have to accept the TOS.
Hence, would it be possible to share a sanitised example of the call you are attempting to make, I would love to have a look and should be able to help you work out the combination that you need to have the TOS screen presented.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

I'm building a tool for my institution that imports grades from another LTI tool into Canvas so instructors can automate late assignment policies not otherwise supported by Canvas. I'm trying to use the LTIv1.3 ID which is readily available on the LTI-side as a link to the student record on Canvas, but I can't find the ID…
How can one track Canvas Media use without having the reports available from Canvas Studio? Checking API endpoints and the Data 2 schema, there do not seem to be dedicated Canvas Media endpoints. Am I missing some? A method I've considered is using the body field of the wiki_pages table, as this contains the html code of…
Hello, I'm trying to utilize an API call to pull completed certificates and was hoping to download and store the certs as a backup. I can successfully run the API call but it will not allow me to view the certificate unless I access the URL while signed into an account where it's "my" cert. Is there a permissions setting…
UI for weekly progression idea that rest in the Schedule tab of the **K-12 UI** of Canvas it's incomplete and I really would not take it and push it into instance but I am going to post it here because in the past people like @James && @robotcars || @Steve_25 have had terrific input in the past... maybe w/their eyes and…
