get_appointment_groups is broken

[eric-vader]

Describe the bug

get_appointment_groups API is broken.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go onto Canvas, create an appointment group
2. canvas.get_appointment_groups() does not yield results (ie. it is empty)

Although, canvas.get_appointment_group(id=id) does work as expected.

Expected behavior

canvas.get_appointment_groups() should not return an empty array and should return the appointment group obj.

Environment information

• Python version (python --version) Python 3.12.4
• CanvasAPI version (pip show canvasapi) 3.3.0

Additional context

I couldnt get create_appointment_group to work properly as well (cannot create appointment), not sure if it is related.

Can you try a couple things?

1. When you try to use canvas.create_appointment_group, are you passing it a course context code? This is required according to the Canvas docs. A sample of your script may help identify the problem.
2. When you request appointment groups, are you passing it a scope? If the scope is missing, Canvas defaults to "reservable," but if there are none, it would result in an empty list.

I have followed your suggestions and have managed to make it work. Thanks so much!
