}Authorizations
An API key issued by a company administrator — an environment prefix (production: sdb_live_) followed by 32 characters. The prefix identifies the environment and MUST NOT be hard-coded or validated by clients; treat the whole key as opaque. Shown exactly once at creation; only a one-way hash is stored.
Scopes (granted per key on the create screen; :write never implies :read):
skills:readskills:writepeople:readpeople:writecareers:readcareers:writetraining:readtraining:writeflags:readflags:writeorg:readorg:writeassessments:readlearning:readlearning:writecertifications:readcertifications:writeassessments:writeproficiency:readproficiency:writesurveys:readsurveys:writelabels:readlabels:write
Headers
Any unique string (at most 200 characters). Retrying with the same key and identical content replays the stored response for 24h instead of executing twice.
Maximum string length:
200Path Parameters
Which reference list: learning-types, training-providers, training-formats, training-audiences or training-course-levels.
Available options:
learning-types, training-providers, training-formats, training-audiences, training-course-levels Body
application/json
Every entry id of the list, in the desired order.
Example:
["3", "1", "2"]
