Looking for some help with an API call to update my existing sessions

Hi Everyone, 

    New to Docebo, this is my first post.  

I have been using the API to migrate data from our old LMS system.  I was able to create all of our old ILT courses and create sessions and events for each.  This issue is I did not specify the evaluation type when I created the sessions, so I need to do that.  I’m using: 

 https://sdge.docebosaas.com/course/v1/sessions/{{session_id}} as a put action

Here is my code body: 

{
"name": "{{session_name}}",
"code": "{{session_code}}",
"min_enroll": 0,
"max_enroll": 500,
"score_base": 0,
"enrollment_deadline": "{{start_date}}",
"evaluation_type": 2,
"min_attended_dates_for_completion": 1,
"custom_rsvp_enabled": true
}

and here is my result:

{
"name": "Bad Request",
"message": [
"Invalid parameter: evaluation_type"
],
"code": 1002,
"status": 400
}

Anyone have an idea why it’s not accepting evaluation type 2?  It works when creating a class.  I’ve tried different numbers, with and without quotes.  I’m just not sure what the API is looking for.  The API example just says: “evaluation_type” : 0  

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,

Justin

We’re looking to update the external calendars’ RSVP feature on some courses via the API but it doesn’t look like that field is available.

Is that what custom_rsvp_enabled is referring to? 

 

I don’t use the calendar RSVP function, so I’m not sure, but here is what api schema says about that parameter:

 

Check for enable/disable custom option for the rsvp into session. When set, this overrides the course one (when the RSVP toggle is OFF this parameter will be ignored). Allowed values: null, false, true. Default value is null
