API for getting custom data for a given user in a course

Question

Today there is an API to store custom data for a given user:

PUT /v1/courses/{course_id}/custom_gradebook_columns/{id}/data/{user_id}

However, there is a need for the equivalent GET/v1/courses/{course_id}/custom_gradebook_columns/{id}/data/{user_id}

Background at https://community.canvaslms.com/ideas/10952-api-needed-for-getting-custom-data-for-a-given-user-in-a-course

Is it possible to have such an API or is there another way to get the data (without having to get the entire column)?

Hi  @maguire ,

I have done some sleuthing and indeed you are correct. I was hoping there might be another way through the gradebook history APIs, but alas there is not.

Upvoted for this!

Cheers,
