How many different ways can a student view a file in a course

I've got a student that got access to a file, and I'm trying to figure out how they may have done it.    

The file was posted as a file attachment to the question text of a File Upload Quiz question (see attached)

From my own research I've uncovered 3 ways that a student could get access to the file.

1)  Open the quiz, view question, click preview

2)  Open the quiz, view question, click file link to download

3)  Mobile, Open the quiz, view question, tap file link to open in new window

In my User Page Views, these three modes of access show up as follows

1) /api/v1/canvadoc_session?blob=%7B%22user_id%22:130000003341157,%22attachment_id%22:95550680,%22type%22:%22canvadoc%22%7D&hmac=e2103e759c9b69053e36f031187dc8d8c5296b1

2) /api/v1/courses/1204457/files/95550680

3)  /api/v1/courses/1204457/files/95550680

I can't find any of these access methods for the student in question.   Is there any other way you know of via Canvas  that I am missing for the student to get to the file that would be logged differently?
