Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @104888845047250,
I'm not sire there is going to be a "universal" way to do what you're asking, as different schools/districts will set up Canvas in various ways. Even putting that aside though, can you tell us more about your role and what access to Canvas you have? Are you a teacher, an admin, a 3rd party tool provider (if so, do you require your clients to set up a developer API key), etc? That info might help people here in the community here at least suggest some options that might work in some scenarios.
