Hi Alex, thank you for your PRs! I'm glad you found this script useful 😊
I'm curious what errors were being thrown here and where they originated? It would be nice to scope down the try/excepts a little if possible.

Here is the error and traceback I was specifically getting. I imagine that this is probably just an error with my school's configuration of permissions or something, but I wanted to be able to just continue on with the script instead of having it exit out.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "export.py", line 620, in <module>
    course_view = getCourseView(course)
  File "export.py", line 542, in getCourseView
    course_view.assignments = findCourseAssignments(course)
  File "export.py", line 365, in findCourseAssignments
    for submission in submissions:

Ah I see, thank you for the stack trace. That's interesting, the for..in loop actually throws the error when it gets to a certain submission where you don't have the right perms.
