Introduction #

The Application model represents a plugin Application in Canvas. Applications are used to integrate third-party tools and services into the Canvas platform, allowing users to access external resources and functionalities directly from within Canvas. Each application has a unique identifier, name and description.

Basic usage #

To get an application by identifier, use the get method on the Application model manager:

from canvas_sdk.v1.data import Application

application = Application.objects.get(identifier="123")

Filtering #

Applications can be filtered by any attribute that exists on the model.

Filtering for applications is done with the filter method on the Application model manager.

By attribute #

Specify an attribute with filter to filter by that attribute:

from canvas_sdk.v1.data import Application

applications = Application.objects.filter(name="application name")
