I am trying to find out all the times a student downloads a particular file.
User Detail/Access Report only return the number of downloads and the latest time stamp.
Is there a way to get a log of ALL the times the same file was downloaded?
Hello @tom_porter
Thank you for contacting the Instructure Community. The short answer is no - there isn't any type of admin report, analytics, API, etc. that will give you a file or csv of all the times a file was downloaded in a course and by whom.

Hello, I have some general, technical questions about Canvas quiz and activity logs and their interpretation. I am trying to better understand how these logs work from a technical perspective and what they are designed to capture. I am not asking about any specific case. Specifically, I am hoping to clarify: What types of…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
