Tutorial

If you'd like to recreate this program, you can access the extensions folder and then the discussionreplies.py file. You will have to change the group and discussion id's to your specific discussion.

Link Example:

https://xxxx.instructure.com/groups/12345/discussion_topics/1234567

The 5 digit is your group id. The 7 digit is your discussion id.

course = canvas.get_group(12345)

def getreplies():
#saves discussion object into var
  disc = course.get_discussion_topic(1234567)
  #gets entries of discussion object
  y = disc.get_topic_entries()
  # changes pagnated list to iterable and sliceable one
  iterables = [str(i) for i in y]
  final = []

  # for loops that removes html tags and removes student number from back 
  for i, unclean in enumerate(iterables):
      reply = cleanhtml(unclean)
      l = len(reply)
      removenumber = reply[:l-10]
      finalstring = removenumber.replace('SONG:', '')
      final.append(finalstring)

Make sure to put in your own ID's that way you can fetch the replies of the discussion.
