Publish Course

Changed on

Makes the course live by setting published_at. Pass an optional future published_at to schedule the publish; omit it (or leave it blank) to publish immediately. A published_at in the past is rejected. By default this publishes only the course record. To publish a brand-new course in one step, pass publish_sections_and_lessons: true. Before the 200 OK response, the requested publish timestamp is set on the course, every eligible unpublished non-root section, and all unpublished or scheduled lessons underneath it. Drip and blocked section gates remain in effect. Section publish actions may still perform follow-up work asynchronously, and each records how many lessons it published in published_lessons_count. Otherwise sections and lessons stay draft until published via the Courses::Sections::PublishAction resource. Returns 422 if published_at is supplied but is not a valid ISO 8601 datetime, or if it is in the past. See Publishing in the Courses Skill for the publish paths.

Path parameters

idstring required

Request body

published_atstring date-time

Optional ISO 8601 datetime at which the course should become live. Must be now or in the future — a past datetime is rejected with a 422. Omit or leave blank to publish immediately.

publish_sections_and_lessonsboolean

When true, sets the requested publish timestamp on the course, every eligible unpublished non-root section, and all unpublished or scheduled lessons before returning the response. Drip and blocked section gates remain in effect. Section publish actions may continue follow-up processing asynchronously. Use this for a one-step publish of a new course. Defaults to false.
