The ABC’s of the Canvas REST API

This is a post to collect all of the presentation resources for my presentation at the Mid-Atlantic Group Instructing with Canvas (MAGIC) Conference. To get the most out of this experience, try installing these two Chrome extensions before we really get started:

Postman-REST Client 

We will use the Postman REST Client to make all of our API calls for this workshop.

JSONView 

The JSONView extension will help you format JSON, a lightweight data interchange format. This is very useful when working with API’s.
