Files

An API for managing files and folders See the File Upload Documentation for details on the file upload workflow.

A File object looks like:

{
  "id": 569,
  "folder_id": 4207,
  "display_name": "file.txt",
  "filename": "file.txt",
  "content-type": "text/plain",
  "url": "http://www.example.com/files/569/download?download_frd=1",
  // file size in bytes
  "size": 43451,

  "locked": false,
  "hidden": false,
  "lock_at": "2012-07-20T14:58:50Z",
  "hidden_for_user": false,
  // Changes who can access the file. Valid options are 'inherit' (the default),
  // 'course', 'institution', and 'public'. Only valid in course endpoints.
  "visibility_level": "course",
  "thumbnail_url": null,
  "modified_at": "2012-07-06T14:58:50Z",

  // identifier for file in third-party transcoding service
  "media_entry_id": "m-3z31gfpPf129dD3sSDF85SwSDFnwe",
  "locked_for_user": false,
  "lock_info": null,
  "lock_explanation": "This assignment is locked until September 1 at 12:00am",
  // optional: url to the document preview. This url is specific to the user
  // making the api call. Only included in submission endpoints.
  "preview_url": null
}

A Folder object looks like:

{
  "context_type": "Course",
  "context_id": 1401,
  "files_count": 0,
  "position": 3,

  "locked": true,
  "locked_for_user": false,
  // If true, indicates this is a read-only folder containing files submitted to
  // assignments
  "for_submissions": false
}

An UsageRights object looks like:

// Describes the copyright and license information for a File
{
  // Copyright line for the file
  "legal_copyright": "(C) 2014 Incom Corporation Ltd",
  // Justification for using the file in a Canvas course. Valid values are
  // 'own_copyright', 'public_domain', 'used_by_permission', 'fair_use',
  // 'creative_commons'

  // License identifier for the file.
  "license": "cc_by_sa",
  // Readable license name
  "license_name": "CC Attribution Share-Alike",
  // Explanation of the action performed
  "message": "4 files updated",
  // List of ids of files that were updated
  "file_ids": [1, 2, 3]
}

A License object looks like:

{
  // a short string identifying the license
  "id": "cc_by_sa",
  // the name of the license
  "name": "CC Attribution ShareAlike",
