How do I make a curl request to start an account report? specifically grade export. I have tried all kinds of things but nothing will start the report. here is my last thing I tried. I thought by the documentation when it says
POST /api/v1/accounts/:account_id/reports/:report
my curl request should be this:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" "https://emmanuelcollege.instructure.com/api/v1/accounts/1/reports/grade_export_csv"
All I get is a bunch of json data back but the report is not showing up inside Canvas as running. I don't completely understand how this all works and I read other post about starting a report but I haven't seen exactly how to do it with curl.
