Canvas MCP Server V2.0

# Canvas Course Parameters Fix Summary - v2.2.3 ## 🐛 **Issue Fixed** **GitHub Issue #9**: `restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates` not respected when creating Canvas courses ## ✅ **Root Cause** The `restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates` parameter (and many other Canvas course parameters) were missing from the MCP tool input schemas for `canvas_create_course` and `canvas_update_course`. The MCP server filters out any parameters not explicitly defined in the inputSchema before passing them to the Canvas API, causing these parameters to be ignored. ## 🔧 **Fix Applied** ### **Files Modified:** - `src/index.ts` - Updated tool input schemas - `package.json` - Version bump to 2.2.3 - `CHANGELOG.md` - Documented the fix ### **Parameters Added to `canvas_create_course`:** - ✅ `restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates` - The key missing parameter - ✅ `is_public_to_auth_users` - ✅ `public_syllabus` - ✅ `public_syllabus_to_auth` - ✅ `public_description` - ✅ `allow_student_wiki_edits` - ✅ `allow_wiki_comments` - ✅ `allow_student_forum_attachments` - ✅ `open_enrollment` - ✅ `self_enrollment` - ✅ `term_id` - ✅ `sis_course_id` - ✅ `integration_id` - ✅ `hide_final_grades` - ✅ `apply_assignment_group_weights` - ✅ `time_zone` ### **Parameters Added to `canvas_update_course`:** - ✅ All the same parameters as create (except `account_id` which can't be changed) ## 🎯 **Impact** ### **Before Fix:** ```javascript // This would NOT work { "account_id": 123, "name": "Test Course", "start_at": "2025-09-01T09:00:00Z", "end_at": "2025-12-15T18:00:00Z", "restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates": true // IGNORED! } // Result: Course created but restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates = false ``` ### **After Fix:** ```javascript // This now WORKS correctly { "account_id": 123, "name": "Test Course", "start_at": "2025-09-01T09:00:00Z", "end_at": "2025-12-15T18:00:00Z", "restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates": true // RESPECTED! } // Result: Course created with restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates = true ``` ## 🚀 **Usage Example** Now you can create courses with proper enrollment date restrictions: ```javascript await canvas_create_course({ account_id: 123, name: "Fall 2025 Computer Science", course_code: "CS101", start_at: "2025-08-25T08:00:00Z", end_at: "2025-12-15T17:00:00Z", restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates: true, // Now works! is_public: false, hide_final_grades: false, apply_assignment_group_weights: true, time_zone: "America/Denver" }); ``` ## 📋 **Verification** - ✅ All missing parameters now included in inputSchema - ✅ Parameters match corresponding TypeScript interfaces - ✅ Backward compatible - no breaking changes - ✅ Version updated to 2.2.3 - ✅ Changelog documented ## 🏁 **Status** **RESOLVED** - The `restrict_enrollments_to_course_dates` parameter and all other missing Canvas course parameters are now properly supported by the MCP server tools. --- **GitHub Issue**: https://github.com/DMontgomery40/mcp-canvas-lms/issues/9 **Fix Version**: 2.2.3 **Release Date**: 2025-06-27
