Reportes de actividad total

[Administrador]

Buenos días, espero que estén muy bien

Solicito ayuda por favor para identificar en qué informe masivo puedo obtener el campo de "Actividad total",  donde se ve el tiempo total que ha invertido en su curso.

Muchas gracias

Hello there, @Administrador ...

I am not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but have you tried looking at the reports available in "New Analytics"?  Although this may not show you total time, it does show things like weekly online activity (page views, participation, etc.).  You can download student reports, and you can also download course activity reports that might help you as well.  Here are a few Guides for you to look at:

Again, I am not 100% sure if this answers your question, but hopefully it will be some good information for you to look through.  Please keep us posted here in the Canvas Community if we can be of further help.  Thanks!

Hello @Chris_Hofer 

I really aprecciate your response, but it is not that I need, I have explored those reports and I do not find information related with the field I need, wich is "Total activity" into the course, this field give me total activity for student and also for instructor. Therefore I would like to know if it is possible can downlooad through a masive reporte from the admin role and not for each course, I can get that this field exist when you are looking for into the course, but I cannot see it when I want to download to do a general report both by new analytics and by administrator reports.

Thank you!

Have you tried the enrollments API: Enrollments - Canvas LMS REST API Documentation?

The Enrollment object includes:

  // The total activity time of the user for the enrollment, in seconds.
  "total_activity_time": 260,

Hi @Administrador,

You've got a couple answers from other people on the possible how's of doing this.  I did want to just add a word of caution in general about the total activity time.  The numbers presented there are educated guesses at best, and sometimes just wildly inaccurate.  There do seem to be some things that don't log activity time at all (or log limited activity), but there are also other things that will greatly inflate that number.  Just staying on a page and walking away from the computer for an hour can increase the activity time by an hour in some cases.  Just wanted to really make sure you and anyone else who sees this thread understands the data you're dealing with in this place is not great for anything other than a perhaps gauging a general activity level for an entire class (in my opinion), and you may not even want to move forward with your project based on that.

Hi @Administrador,

To expand on what @chriscas said, I would recommend reading the "View Users" (or "Ver usuarios") section of the guide(s) below for more information about time is calculated.
