LMS Manual API Calls

Overview

From LMS Integration Administration -> Manual API Calls, SS&E administrators can manually connect with the Learning Management System services API in order to test or pull LMS courses, enrollments. enrollment data etc.

  • The Manual API Call actions utilize the same API services that SS&E calls programmatically via LMS Integration Jobs and will accurately reflect the LMS results displayed in SS&E when syncing the same data.

Messages that indicate the LMS connectivity is broken:

  • Course Sections results in an error - "Access control exception. No data was returned."
  • Enrollments for Course Section results in an error - "Failed to fetch enrollments for the course section."
  • Gradebook Columns for Course Section results display an empty page.

If the Manual API calls are failing this indicates a problem with the LMS API connectivity.

To resolve the LMS connectivity:

  1. Verify that the SS&E account/user is setup correctly in the LMS
  2. Verify that the API key is active. 
  3. If everything looks good and there is an error, please open a Support ticket sharing screenshots of everything that was checked.
