How can I build a report that shows both Course Name and Course Description?

Hi everyone,

I’m preparing a content-audit spreadsheet so I can see exactly what’s in our catalogue. The key fields I need are:

  • Course Name (title)

  • Course description (or whatever description fields the LMS stores)

  • Any associated Tags (nice-to-have)

So far I can only get Course Name to appear; the description field isn’t showing up as an available column.

Help!

Hi ​@Pedro 

To follow​@juliefiretech and ​@KarenPegram feedback, here are the related API documents needing to pull course description.
​​​​​​Because you are working on helium based experience so you should review:

https://thoughtindustries.github.io/helium/?path=/story/packages-catalog--list

​​​​​​
Standard fetch can also be done with: List Content api endpoint https://api.thoughtindustries.com/#list-content

Hope this helps!

@Pedro Course Descriptions are not available in current reports - only through an API from what I’ve heard.

You can get tags to be included on your reports though: “Content Tags” fields on the Content Catalog report:

Thanks so much Julie!

 

Your comment is right on target. Today, you can create a report that will pull the course title and the associated tags. Course descriptions are not available via in platform reporting, but are available via an API endpoint. If you have additional questions related to our APIs feel free to reach out to your Scaled Success team at Success@thoughtindustries.com

Thank you,
