Process Student Question Lifecycles

You can script the full question lifecycle. First, run `list_questions` to get all submissions. Then, fetch specifics using `get_question`. The tool also lets you programmatically clean up by running `delete_question` on expired records.

Automate Message Archiving

Need a script that processes conversations? Use `list_message_threads` to get all thread IDs. Pipe those IDs into `get_message_thread` to pull the full conversation history for archiving.

Batch Review and Course Data Extraction

For a cron job, you can run `list_courses` to get current offerings. Then, loop through those courses and call `list_reviews` or `list_questions` for comprehensive data extraction into a database.
