Hey everyone,

I'm working with some instances which use scoped developer keys. From a security perspective this makes a lot of sense, but the lack of support for include query parameters is causing a bit of a problem. 

* Is there planned support for checking the scopes for `include` parameters in the future? (i.e. Will I simply be able to add more scopes than API endpoints and use those.)
* How should I go about getting nesting resources? I need email addresses for users in a course, to sync with an external system. 
Is the only way really to add a scope for user and perform requests in a loop? This seems problematic for courses which have large rosters of 1000+ students....


Thanks for the help!
Michael
