With the end of life of EtherPad, I'd like to find a list of instructors that have been using it so we can reach out to them. I don't see that information in the Collaborative API (Canvas LMS REST API Documentation). Anyone know where/if this information can be found?
Just FYI; If you are using Etherpad in Canvas, please see the Canvas Production Release Notes (2015-05-16) for an important update on the plan to discontinue the use of Etherpad integration in Canvas as of August 8th.
Hi Matt,
We had a similar situation recently where our K-12 admins wanted to know what students were using/viewing Etherpads and what the addresses of the Etherpads were. Since there is/was no administration tools for Etherpad, this presented a unique problem.
What we came up with was a python script to crawl through all Student users' page views for the last 90 days looking for any page view with 'etherpad' in the name. We used this call to retrieve them:
This netted us about 10 different etherpads we were unaware of and mostly answered the question.
Now that we're involved in the Hosted Data Beta program, we're able to look at page views from around 1 year ago and see etherpads visited since then.
Hopefully that sheds some light on this issue.
Hi @mlewis23 ,
I am going through having a look at some of the early days in the Canvas Developers group, and checking in to see if older enquiries have been answered. I also noticed there hasn’t been any discussion on this question in quite some time.
I am wondering, were you ever able to resolve this?
I will mark this as assumed answered for the time being, however, by all means please let us know if you still have an outstanding question and we will take a peek!
Cheers,Stuart
Hello, I was thinking of this a while ago and have been trying to message Canvas support about this but they suggested here but not which category. I apologize if this is the wrong spot. When messaging students right now we need to message one by one. I would like to know if there is a way we can change that to streamline…
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…
