I have 40 sections in my course. Does anyone know of a method for me to generate a list of who is in each section without having to do them one by one?
@a_eberhard , I don't believe there is an easy way to do this on the front end of Canvas. On the back-end it should be possible via the API. but for that you might want to post this question over in the Canvas Developers group. They're more about the programming and back end side of Canvas. Side note, isn't this information available via your Student Information System/Portal?

Per @10449271 , I think a better work around would be: "Do you have the sections cross-listed into one course? If so, you can export the gradebook and sort the resulting Excel file by section."
