"New Analytics" student page view missing data columns

Hopefully this message goes to an actual Canvas developer for the "New Analytics."

The newer version of the student view tabular data keeps the Page Views and Participation but neglected to include the Submissions, On-Time, Late, and Missing data columns.

Please be aware that downloading the comma separated file format creates more, and unnecessary, data edits in order to get the data that were available in the previous version as tabular views. I am a longtime GIS/data analytics person, and I do not want to have to go back to the days of editing raw data. The tabular data format in the previous version was perfect!  Why mess with a good thing?

Perhaps this was an oversight on your part by not including the last four data columns, but I really do not want to waste my precious time downloading and massaging data to get the format that was easily accessed in the older version.
