Is there any API available to get Blueprint status in Modules view to implement it in LTI 1.3?

Hi, I am trying to get Blurprint course details via API and in modules view I am unable to get the blueprint course status for each module item. is there any way that I can differentiate blueprint content in external tools?

Hi @dineshkumar_tha,

I'm going to move this post over to the developers area where there are more API/LTI experts who might be able to answer this question.  I'm curious as to why an external tool would need to know whether an assignment/content was inherited from a blueprint...  Is this a reporting tool you're building, or something else?  I have a feeling that providing more info about the end goal and purpose might help people answer this or provide alternative suggestions.

Thanks @chriscas  for escalating this to developers area.The reason why we want to bring to an external tool is: we are building an external tool named Loree  as our own product which empowers educators, learning designers and independent organisations to build web-like course pages and interactive learning experiences in minutes, giving precious time back to focus on what they do best. 

In our application, we are getting data from Canvas using API's and let the designers/educators to build course page contents. 

For blueprint course, depending on lock state we have to restrict the content to edit and this is the area we are stuggled to get blueprint data on Modules page.

 

please refer the attachmemnt on how we implemented in pages using API.

Do you want to check to see if the item in the modules view originally came from a blueprinted course?

Exactly @matthew_buckett . We were able to get the data for pages, assignments and discussions. However, inside modules under module items, we were unable to find any API to get blueprint data.
