iblai-api-studio-settings

Course settings on ibl.ai Studio live behind one JSON endpoint that merges the Open edX "Schedule & Details" fields with the ibl.ai catalog fields the LMS app shows. Read it, send back only the keys you change. Files (course image, banner, any asset) go through the assets endpoint first; advanced settings (advanced_modules and friends) have their own endpoint.

Before you start

1. Preflight: node .claude/skills/iblai-api-studio-auth/scripts/studio-login.mjs --check prints two oks; otherwise run /iblai-api-studio-auth first — do not attempt the calls below.
2. A course key from /iblai-api-studio-course-create.
3. Do this before building content and before the first publish. Three rules that Studio enforces silently:
   • Pacing is locked once the course has started. self_paced can only change while start_date is in the future; after that the endpoint returns 200 and echoes the old value. Decide pacing now. (Workaround for a started course: set start_date to a future date, flip self_paced, restore start_date.) The lock is evaluated against the start_date in the request, not the stored one — so sending self_paced and a past/today start_date in the same body silently keeps the old pacing, even on a fresh course still sitting at 2030-01-01. Always send self_paced in its own call first, verify the echo, then set the real dates in a second call. (Verified live: self_paced + a future start_date in one body is accepted even on a started course, which is why the workaround above works in two calls; self_paced + a past start_date in one body applies the date and drops the pacing change.)
   • Enrollment opens before the course starts: enrollment_start must be earlier than start_date (and enrollment_end, if set, later than enrollment_start).
   • The /iblai-api-studio-outline builder publishes the whole course; set dates, description and images first so the catalog never shows a half-configured course.
