Fun with Canvas APIs and content

I have been encouraged to make the contents of my sandbox more visible, it can be found at https://kth.instructure.com/courses/11  One of my goals has been to be able to use software to interact with Canvas, rather than being limited to cut and paste with RCE. Another of my goals has been to use programs to move content out of various systems that we are currently using and into Canvas. Another goal has been to move content in the other direction to other external systems.

My sandbox contains a lot of examples of things that I have been experimenting with, including computing readability statistics for the page of a course, adding citations to pages (via Zotero) using an RCE buttom to call on an LTI tool provider [a work in progress], and today's exporting of a spreadsheet of all assignments for a course (using Python's Pandas). I'm eager for feedback and opinions on this material.
