Canvas Data Release Notes (2018-01-08)

Canvas Data Release Notes (2018-01-08)

In this production release of Canvas Data, we have bumped to schema version 1.18.0 and have added a new set of score tables. The new schema has been attached to this post to help accommodate change. This change version will go live in January 23rd's data dump. New tables have been added to the Canvas Data Schema to help clarify scores that belong to an assignment group, course, or grading period.

The score_fact and score_dim tables are also being deprecated in order to accommodate the new score tables for more accurate reporting.
