[ARCHIVED] Grade Sync Error - Need to know the Assignment Number

[msummerlin]

I'm getting an error message and it references the student by number(which I found under people), but it also references the assignment 'number' which I have not been able to find.  Anyone else?  I've posted the error message below. Could anyone tell me how to determine where the "number" is?

Unable to post score for student (student_42482) in assignment (678543). Score has been removed after original grading took place. This error can be disregarded and will disappear after a new score has been added to the student's submission.

I don't have any experience with the grade sync tool, but generally speaking, if you know what course the assignment is in, the URL for the assignment will be 

https:// [my canvas server] / courses / [course id] / assignments / [assignment id]

If you don't know what the course ID is, I'd look at the "Page views" log in the student's user page and go review the pages that they are accessing around the time that the error is occurring.

I see what you mean. I just don't understand how you are seeing the part at the end: / [assignment id]
I see the rest of the thread. I'm getting the same error.

Use People to identify the student by typing their number in the search bar and seeing who comes up. 

The assignment search bar doesn't seam to let you input numbers, but here is a work around.  Go to your assignment tab in Canvas. In the URL line you should see that the address ends with the word assignments - just add a forward slash (/) and the number from your error report (for example: .......assignments/550055 and search for that (enter/return).  The assignment that uses that number should come right up so you can see which assignment it is by name.  Then you can check for the student and the specific assignment in the grade book and work from there (my errors are usually that I removed a grade after it synced so I need to excuse the assignment or give them a grade even a 0 works.  I can't go back to no grade at this point as usually there was no submission, but I entered a score on accident, it synced and then I tried to remove the grade.  I hope this helps someone.
