CANVAS 2.0 Data Pull for New Quizzes

[haydentn]

Hey everyone, 

When getting data from Canvas, I tried pulling data from Canvas.Quizzes, and that seemed to have only pulled in rows for classic Quizzes on Canvas. Using the relationship visualizer, I can't seem to find a way to pull in data for New Quizzes. Link 

Am I overlooking something? I know that it shows up in Canvas.Assignments, but is there a way to retrieve questions/submissions from New Quizzes like there is for classic Quizzes as a batch download from Canvas? 

There are some API commands for New Quizzes, but these do not seem to grab questions/submissions either: Link 

Any help would be appreciated!

New Quizzes is implemented as an LTI so you might want to look at the "lti_results" table: https://data-access-platform-api.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html#tag/lti_results

Thanks for this! I do believe this successfully keeps submission_id/scores of external tools such as New Quizzes, but I'm hoping to pull questions/submissions/answer choices and such as Canvas currently has for classic quizzes. Any chance you know if this is possible on New Quizzes as well?

I don't believe any of the LTI tables pull in this information. Canvas.Assignments is also able to grab New Quizzes, but does not dive any deeper to get question text/answers/etc.

Unfortunately, you can't pull those data via API yet, due to the nature of LTI tool.. those data are stored externally.

According to New Quizzes roadmap, the endpoints will be available in Q2 2024: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/New-Quizzes-Hub/ct-p/new_quizzes_hub

Ah, that solves my issue. Thank you so, so much @jerry_nguyen! Lifesaver for me spending more time looking into this. Appreciate it!
