Is there a way to get the list of courses sorted in descending order by course id from canvas?

Question

Hi all,

I am trying to write a script that lets me associate a blueprint course with all new courses - but only new courses. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to find the courses by creation date or course id to allow me to identify the new ones?

Thanks!

You can do it with the "List active courses in an account" endpoint.  The sort parameter takes undocumented fields, so you can use id.  For example:

.../api/v1/accounts/1/courses?sort=id&order=desc

Or with created_at:

.../api/v1/accounts/1/courses?sort=created_at&order=desc
