Sandboxes API
LTI Sandboxes API (Must use JWT access tokens with this API).
Sandboxes are how Canvas creates a new environment based on a template. As part of creating the new sandbox, all UUIDs are remapped to new values. To avoid confusion with the original template. This API allows you to download the UUID mapping for a given sandbox.
Download UUID Mapping for this Sandbox
GET /api/lti/uuid_map
Scope:
url:GET|/api/lti/uuid_map
This endpoint returns a CSV file with the UUID mapping for the sandbox. The CSV has three columns:
* `type` - The object type
* `original_uuid` - The UUID of an object from the template
* `new_uuid` - The UUID of the corresponding object in the sandbox
