Course Copy API- Can define source, but not destination?

Looking at the API documentation I could not see any request parameter that allows us to define *where* to copy to course to, i.e the source course can be defined but a destination course or, the subaccount under which to create the destination course is not defined. I must be missing something obvious. Can anybody help? Thanks!

Vedu,

Great question and this is one that is easily overlooked in the API documentation.

To specify which course to copy content into is included as a parameter in the API call that you send to Canvas.

  • settings[source_course_id]
    String
    The course to copy from for a course copy migration. (required if doing course copy)

example: settings[source_course_id]=" + CanvasCourseID

Hope this helps.

Brian
