APIs for a newbie

Hi,

APIs look like they could be incredibly useful for us but the problem is I don't know the coding languages that APIs speak. I'm aware they are powerful and could easily break something. This is why I'm currently just looking at the GET requests and working in the beta environment.

My question is, is it possible in API to:

- Find a new quiz on a course,

- Get all the users who have submitted answers to that Quiz,

- Then generate a list of email addresses for those users?

 

Do you think that would work? Can anyone help or point me in the right direction please. I've read in the community that Instructure doesn't actively help write the APIs but will point you towards the API documentation. So that's why I'm putting this out to the community.

 

Thanks

Rich
