title: Recommended way of getting student assignments in Google Classroom API
body: <p>Trying to get all <strong>assignments for a given student</strong> but cannot find a reliable (fast) way to do it.</p>
  <p>It seems like the only way would be:</p>
  <ol>
  <li>Get the student courses via <a href="https://developers.google.com/classroom/reference/rest/v1/courses/list" rel="nofollow noreferrer">courses.list</a></li>
  <li>Loop through the courses list and call <a href="https://developers.google.com/classroom/reference/rest/v1/courses.courseWork/list" rel="nofollow noreferrer">courses.courseWork.list</a> for each</li>
  </ol>
  <p>Say that on average a student has 10 courses, then 10 requests have to be made. But this takes a while and is kind of overkill...</p>
  <p>I would like to know if I am missing something, is there a better way?</p>
