All of the course API fields are at Courses - Canvas LMS REST API Documentation and Courses - Canvas LMS REST API Documentation .

I don't think there is anywhere you could store your uid. You'll just have to have your application keep a mapping between it and the sis_course_id or the Canvas id, as appropriate.
