My results are rough and I think a little buggy (I'm worried about timeouts and how to manage them), but still promising. My University just adopted Canvas in September and while I don't like to use the interface, it has a pretty robust API and the prospects for usability are actually pretty good. I have been grading in org-mode for the last couple of years but my system was always wonky; I've cleaned the code up a tiny bit (still polluting with (message) calls all over the place), and it seems a bit more stable. Not sure if anyone else is tied in to Canvas, but if it might be useful my work is in this git branch here: https://github.com/titaniumbones/Org-Marking-Mode/tree/use-structured-course-def Let me know if you have a chance to give it a try.
