...Without resorting to loading a page with a button in the iframe.
There is a really bootleg way of doing it. If you have access to the global javascript or the javascript for the subaccount that the course is under, you can add a property to the link that will cause it to open in a new window. I just tried it with our Office Mix LTI link and it worked. You just need to know the course number and the external tool number. The external tool number can be seen by viewing the hyperlink for that that tool. Code looks like this:
$("[href='https://community.canvaslms.com/courses//external_tools/']").prop('target', '_New')
I got it working too by it opening a new tab/window when you navigate to our bespoke external tool, however it just opens a new Canvas session in the new tab where the tool is still showing in the iframe. I don't want the external tool to show in the iframe. Is there a way this can be done? Thank you.

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…
