I want to be able to assign/link Certificates of Completion/Certificate Templates to courses in bulk.  My assumption is that this will need to be done via API like the majority of batch/bulk functions, but Icannot find any API endpoints for this.  Am I missing them somewhere?  Is this still a 100% manual task to assign to courses and LearningPlans?

Hi ​@Jtischler,

There is a way to bulk update certificates via API, its under Courses > Update Course General Details.

You’ll need the ID of the certificate, this is a snapshot from the API call for Course Update.

{
  "certificate": {
    "id": 0,
    "additional_certificates": [
      {
        "sequence": 0,
        "certificate_id": 0,
        "association_entity": {
          "id": 0,
          "type": "group"
        }
      }
    ],
    "additional_certificate_options": {
      "enable_multiple_certificates_generation": true,
      "certificates_to_generate": 0
    }
  }
}

You can get the Cert ID by checking out the URL of the certificate template.

This call will only handle 1 update at a time, so a batch will likely need a runner from whatever API tool you use like Postman.
