Hi All,
We are developing a Moodle web service client that would read detailed timestamp data for quiz responses and use the data for learning analytics. We are running Moodle 3.5.
We have successfully used web services API function mod_quiz_get_attempt_review to get data on a quiz attempt.
Our initial plan was to take the response from mod_quiz_get_attempt_review and read the field “lastactiontime” in the “questions” array to see when the final response for each individual question was submitted. This works nicely when the quiz attempt has not yet been finished. However, when the quiz attempt is finished, “lastactiontime” becomes identical for all questions (“attempt finished” timestamp).
We have investigated the mod_quiz web service API and we could not figure out a way to read the detailed timestamp data for each question. I wonder if there is some way to access the timestamps of each “step” via web services API? In the normal web UI, the information is nicely available via the “Review attempt” functionality.
And if we are approaching this in a completely wrong way, we would greatly appreciate all advice!
Best wishes,
