REST API for course lessons, homework and quizzes

bilister · June 17, 2020, 4:36pm

Does open edx allow you to get/post course lessons, homework, quizzes, and other course details from the REST API?

I have been playing with /api-docs/ and can get some course data, but can’t figure out how to get sections, lessons, homework, or quizzes.

My goal is to get course lessons, homework, and quizzes. Then post a quiz back to edx from a mobile app.

There is already a mobile app here:

You can also check the endpoints used in this app like for example:

github.com

edx/edx-app-android/blob/open-release/juniper.master/OpenEdXMobile/src/main/java/org/edx/mobile/http/constants/ApiConstants.java

package org.edx.mobile.http.constants;

import androidx.annotation.NonNull;
import androidx.annotation.StringDef;

import org.edx.mobile.module.prefs.LoginPrefs;
import org.edx.mobile.module.prefs.PrefManager;

import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;

public class ApiConstants {
    public static final String COURSE_ID = "courseId";
    public static final String USER_NAME = "username";
    public static final String GROUP_ID = "groupId";
    public static final String ORG_CODE = "org";

    public static final String URL_MY_USER_INFO ="/api/mobile/v0.5/my_user_info";

    public static final String URL_ACCESS_TOKEN = "/oauth2/access_token/";

I have been looking also into how to use the API to register and login users but with no luck so far

Is there any further information on this?
I can’t seem to get the API to pull down course content / quizzes / etc
