With the removal of 'Muted' from assignments back in June/July how would you now create an assignment with the api with the grades hidden by default. Then at a later date make them visible.

This needs to be set in the Gradebook (https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-select-a-grade-posting-policy-for-an-assignment-in-the/ta-p/574) and assignments created afterward will automatically be hidden until the instructor posts grades for the specific assignment.

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…
