[ARCHIVED] List of Canvas Tools/Features

[Boekenoogen]

I have been trying to find an all encombering list of all the features that are in Canvas that can be turned on by the CSM. Does anyone know of such a list? For example, I know there is a scheduling tool that works with the Calendar tool, but I do not know the name of it and what other gems are hidden that we don't know about?

Live Events can be turned on by the CSM, Live Events (experimental) - Canvas LMS REST API Documentation 

I think Canvas Data Portal is also turned on by the CSM, can't remember, that was awhile ago.

Also checking out GraphQL which should be available soon or just /graphiql on your instance.

Hey Robert

Where did you find out about /graphiql ??

I've been watching out for any new GraphQL updates but haven't spotted anything recently... I think it could be awesome!

Hi Adam,

There's this thread Experimental GraphQL API?, which I missed.

At InstCon they talked about it being on production soon.

I have been pinging our CSM and the IRC channel for updates and finally caught a bite last week.

There's a decent example in that thread by  @phanley ‌, which I can't understand yet, but pasting into the /graphiql (after replacing the course_id) was really cool.

I'm hoping that graphql will replace some of our LTI's reliance on static Canvas Data, along with Live Events...

potential for some really nice real time data.

Thanks for the info, I have sent a message to my CSM.

Well, this is timely.  I've been working on this list for the last few days.
