Understanding the copy history of course content is crucial to improve version control. Now users can retrieve a detailed history of content copies across different courses.

Administrators can use the endpoint GET /learn/api/public/v1/courses/{courseId}/contents/{contentId} to access course content. To retrieve the content copy history, include the "expand=copyHistory" parameter.

The "copyHistory" attribute contains a list of Content Copy history objects, each with two attributes:

  • contentId: Refers to the historical hierarchy of LTI content IDs
  • courseUuid: Refers to the corresponding course IDs from which the content was copied

For administrators: The required entitlements for Course Content API remain unchanged.
