Hi Matthew, Thanks for for the reply, sorry my terminology was based on what the linking service calls it which is likely not correct. The link I need to add just need the Integration ID value as part of the query string as that is all the external service knows about. i.e.: https://externalserviceiwant.com.au?ProfileExternalId={IntegrationID} Was just wanting to have that on a per user basis ion the profile. The external site won't know to look in the JWT for the value so what I'm reading here is that I'm probably not going to get the outcome I need with just the LTI. By the sounds I will need to create a redirect web app to manage this. Will post how I go with it all if I can get it working, Thank you very much for your reply. Kind Regards, Courtney

Hey, Just wondering if any one has been able to create an LTI that uses an external parties deeplink so that i can add the link somewhere inside Canvas. We have the data we need to pass in the integration id field of all users in our instance but I'm a bit confused with the LTI creation process. I have tried following the instructions on the given on the LTI documentation site but I'm getting a bit confused with the login url etc. Below is what I have. Variables have been replaced for submission. { "title":"DeepLink - Student", "scopes":[ ], "extensions":[ { "domain":"custom.deeplink.com", "tool_id":"add-deepink-canvas_student", "platform":"canvas.instructure.com", "settings":{ "text":"DeepLink for student", "icon_url":"{URLtoIMAGE}", "placements":[ { "text":"View DeepLink for $Canvas.user.name", "enabled":true, "icon_url":"{URLtoIMAGE}", "placement":"user_navigation", "message_type":"LtiResourceLinkRequest", "target_link_uri":"{URLToService}?ProfileExternalId=$Canvas.user.sisIntegrationId", "canvas_icon_class":"icon-lti" } ] } } ], "public_jwk":{ "kty":"RSA", "alg":"RS256", "e":"AQAB", "kid":"8f796169-0ac4-48a3-a202-fa4f3d814fcd", "n":"nZD7QWmIwj-3N_RZ1qJjX6CdibU87y2l02yMay4KunambalP9g0fU9yZLwLX9WYJINcXZDUf6QeZ-SSbblET-h8Q4OvfSQ7iuu0WqcvBGy8M0qoZ7I-NiChw8dyybMJHgpiP_AyxpCQnp3bQ6829kb3fopbb4cAkOilwVRBYPhRLboXma0cwcllJHPLvMp1oGa7Ad8osmmJhXhM9qdFFASg_OCQdPnYVzp8gOFeOGwlXfSFEgt5vgeU25E-ycUOREcnP7BnMUk7wpwYqlE537LWGOV5z_1Dqcqc9LmN-z4HmNV7b23QZW4_mzKIOY4IqjmnUGgLU9ycFj5YGDCts7Q", "use":"sig" }, "target_link_uri":"URLToService", "description":"DeepLink", "oidc_initiation_url":"https://canvas.test.instructure.com", } As I'm not trying to leave Canvas to do anything should the oidc be my canvas instance? Am i trying to do something you can't do? I just want to be able to add the link in here to the user navigation for everyone. Is the JWT bit correct too? I am very confused with this part as I don't really understand it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated? Kind Regards Courtney O'Sullivan

Hi, We use Assignment Groups for managing what assessments get brought into our external report writing systems and as such would find the ability to lock assignments very valuable to be able to be done by the blueprint managers or by the Admin staff. At present we are battling with Staff who will rename, alter or remove required assessments by accident because it is so easy to change modify these groups. We have investigated try to lock down permissions so that they cant modify these assignments but haven't found a way at this point without hamstringing the teaching staff from controlling their classes they way they want to. If there is a way to do this with the current systems please let me know.

Hi @Steve_25, This had been working great until this week or so and we are now getting errors relating to the AutoCompleteView,js when we try to run it for a student. Below is the callstack. MessageFormDialog.js:436 Uncaught TypeError: e.id.match is not a function at ft.canAddNotesFor (MessageFormDialog.js:436) at MessageFormDialog.js:410 at Function.lt (lodash.underscore.js:2481) at ft.recipientIdsChanged (MessageFormDialog.js:409) at c (backbone.js:208) at Ue.trigger (backbone.js:149) at Ue._addToken (AutocompleteView.js:719) at AutocompleteView.js:829 at Function.rt (lodash.underscore.js:2273) at Ue.setTokens (AutocompleteView.js:827) I am running the code as part of the theme and have no other external JS than yours running. Is this something you have seen before? It seems to load one parent but doesn't colour code them like it used to and dies trying to load a subsequent parent. Kind Regards, Courtney O'Sullivan

Thanks Brian, I eventually got there. Thanks for the reply. The bit that threw me was the scale for Max Participations and Views was from 0-3. Managed to get a good student participation report out of this so thanks.

Hi, I am trying to get the audience participation data out of BigBlueButton so we can report on student participation across the school and i was wondering if that was possible? I know you can per conference export a CSV but i want to be able to do it across the environment. We are using premium as far as i'm aware. Update: I have been told we are not on Premium. Would this solve our issue? I have been using the following endpoint (Conferences - Canvas LMS REST API Documentation ) in Canvas to get a list of all the conferences but it seems that the Users listed aren't necessarily who attended the conference but who was invited(?). I'm not 100% sure on this but it means i will need to look else where for this data if that is not the case. I spot checked a few conferences and noticed a student was listed as attendee who never logged in that day. I have found a Canvas created Request log file in the Canvas data dump that shows who has joined a conference via the controller/action conferences/join but i cannot find where i can pull this from in the API. Anyone know where to get this data? Like always any assistance is greatly appreciated. Kind Regards, Courtney O'Sullivan

Hi, I am playing with the Analytics endpoints atm to build a student participation report and i am a bit flummoxed trying to work out what the difference between some of the values were as some were not what i was expecting based on what i see in the UI and i though who better to ask than the community. Take the below extract from a Student summary in a Course. { "id": 3718, "page_views": 142, "max_page_views": 249, "page_views_level": 2, "participations": 4, "max_participations": 8, "participations_level": 3, "tardiness_breakdown": { "missing": 3, "late": 1, "on_time": 0, "floating": 5, "total": 9 } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ I was wondering what the difference was between max_page_view and page_views? And what the Page Views Level was ? It looks like it might be a ratio as 142/249 is around 0.57. So 2 would be 50%? Would this be this students view's versus the rest of the course? What is the level based on? Same with Participants. What is the difference between Participations and Max Particpations? Tardiness makes sense so far but curious what floating are? Assuming they are assignments that aren't due yet? Thanks in advance for any assistance, Cheers Courtney O'Sullivan
