Hi,
Is there an Attendance or Roll Call API ? 
I checked the API page here https://canvas.instructure.com/doc/api/index.html  but did not find anything and want to make sure I did not overlook something.

There is not currently.  It’s something we’d like to do at some point, but no active plans yet.  It’s a little tricky because it is an external LTI tool, so the api would really act as a proxy to the tool.

I would like to know if there is any api for Roll Call Attendance external tool that is integrated with Canvas. I searched hard for any documentation about a developer API for this Attendance tool but could not find any?

Regards,
Wael

Hey, that’s my gist! :)  That was for some internal experimenting we were doing, it’s not available publicly yet.  Sorry.  There is not currently an attendance/roll call api.
