Noodle Lifelong Platform API – Noodle Products

Course catalogue and shopping cart endpoints for Noodle partner institutions.

Getting started

Introduction

The Noodle Lifelong Platform (NLP) is the system where Noodle's partner institutions author and manage their course catalogues. This documentation describes the public endpoints available to partners and to developers building on their behalf.

Overview

There are four topics to find here.

The Courses API returns a partner's course catalogue — every course they offer, with schedules, pricing, instructors, locations, and enrollment dates. It supports search, filtering, and pagination, and it can return a single course by its slug.

The Shopping Cart API lets a website build a cart on a learner's behalf: create a cart, add and remove courses, and hand the learner over to NLP to complete checkout and enrollment.

The course property reference documents every property returned on a course object, with the type, permitted values, and an example for each.

How Noodle's own WordPress integration consumes the API. This is worth reading before planning a project that will replace or rebuild an existing Noodle-built marketing site, because some of the information displayed on those sites originates outside the API.

Details

The sections that follow are ordered for a first read: terminology, authentication, environments, and how data moves, then the material specific to each API, and finally the Engage CMS material. Each section opens with a plain-language overview and follows with the technical detail.

How this document is organised

Glossary, authentication, environments, and data flow — the orientation below, which applies to every endpoint.
All about the Courses API — the catalogue endpoints, their properties, their access rules, and a sample response.
All about the Shopping Cart API — the cart endpoints, their properties, their access rules, and a sample response.
How the Engage CMS integration works — context for projects that replace or extend a Noodle-built marketing site, including the Noodle CMS Connections data those sites hold outside the API.

Glossary

NLP uses a small number of terms in specific ways. Definitions follow Noodle's platform documentation.

Term	Definition
Instance	A tenant environment containing the branding, content, settings, and policies for one partner or client, reached at its own URL. Sometimes called a Discover Instance.
Parent instance	The organisation-level environment — typically the university itself — whose administrators can view and create instances beneath it.
Child instance	An instance created beneath a parent, commonly for a specific population such as a school, programme line, corporate partner, or alumni group.
Partner ID	The identifier of an instance. It is also the credential this API uses: the Partner ID is supplied as the API key.
Private label	The underlying hosting model. Every NLP instance is branded for its partner, which is unrelated to whether the instance is open or invitation-only.
Microsite	The public-facing landing and catalogue pages for an instance. This is the surface a partner's marketing site replaces or supplements.
LMS instance	A configuration that connects an NLP instance to an external learning platform such as Canvas or Moodle, so that courses and enrollments can move between the two systems.
Shopping cart	The checkout capability that allows a learner to enroll in several courses at once. Enabled per instance.
Member	A person who belongs to an instance.
Course instance	One enrollable offering of a course. Several instances of the same course may run on different dates and are separate records.
Grouping key	A value shared by several course records that belong to the same offering, used to present them together while keeping them separate for enrollment.
Engage CMS	Noodle's WordPress theme and plugin suite, used to build partner marketing sites that display NLP course data.

Authentication

Overview

Access is granted by a single identifier rather than a login. Noodle issues a Partner ID for an instance, and that value is sent with every request. The response contains that partner's courses and nothing else.

The shopping cart adds one further identifier. The first cart request returns a session ID that represents one shopper's cart; sending it back on later requests reaches the same cart.

Details

There is no token exchange and no OAuth handshake.

Header	Required on	Value
`X-Noodle-Partner-Id`	Every endpoint	The Partner ID of an NLP instance, acting as the API key. Scopes every response to that partner.
`X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id`	Shopping Cart, after the first call	The `session_id` returned by Get or Create Cart. Identifies one shopper's cart across requests.

Establishing a cart session. Call Get or Create Cart with the partner header alone. The response returns a session_id, which represents the shopper, and an id, which identifies the cart itself. Store the session_id — a cookie or local storage is typical — and send it in X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id on subsequent cart requests. The id is used in the path of the remaining cart endpoints.

Environments and choosing a Partner ID

Overview

NLP runs separate environments for testing and for live traffic, and a partner's catalogue may be divided across more than one instance. Two configuration choices follow from this: which environment to point at, and which Partner ID to use.

Both endpoints in an integration — the catalogue and the cart — should point at the same environment, and the Partner ID should normally be that of a child instance rather than a parent.

Details

Environment	Base URL
Production	`https://services.noodle.com`
Staging	`https://staging2services.noodle.com`

Keeping environments aligned. The catalogue endpoint and the cart endpoint are expected to remain synchronised. Each works independently, so a mismatch can be difficult to identify from behaviour alone; confirming both are configured for the same environment during setup avoids this.

Parent and child instances. NLP instances form a hierarchy. A parent instance is the organisation-level environment; child instances sit beneath it and typically represent a school, programme line, or sponsored population. Courses are associated to child instances for enrollment, so an integration reading a catalogue normally uses a child instance Partner ID. A parent Partner ID may return course records that also exist at the child level, which can surface the same course more than once.

Multiple catalogues on one site. A partner maintaining several child instances will have several Partner IDs, and a single marketing site may present all of them. Each is a separate call; results are combined by the client.

Cart scope. The cart is associated with one Partner ID. Where a site draws on several instances, the behaviour for combining items from different partners into a single cart is not yet defined. Noodle can advise on the current position for integrations that need this.

How data moves

Overview

NLP holds the authoritative record of every course. A website reads that record and displays it; nothing a website does changes the course itself. The exception is the shopping cart, which is genuinely two-way.

Details

Courses are read-only. Courses are authored in NLP, which creates the corresponding course in the connected LMS. A marketing site retrieves the record and renders it. No course attribute is written back through this API.

The cart is bidirectional. Items added through the Shopping Cart API appear in the learner's NLP cart, and items removed in NLP are reflected back. Checkout and enrollment take place on the NLP domain, behind authentication.

The API exposes a selected set of fields. The properties documented here are those made available over the API, which is a subset of what NLP holds internally. Where a value is visible in the NLP administrative interface but is not present in a response, Noodle can confirm whether it is exposed and advise on alternatives.

Courses API

Endpoints for reading a partner's course catalogue.

Overview

Two endpoints are available. List Courses returns a partner's whole catalogue and supports search, filtering, and pagination. Get Course by Slug returns one course by its URL-friendly identifier, optionally with its sections.

Course data is read-only. NLP holds the authoritative record, and nothing is written back through these endpoints.

Details on properties

A course object carries 70 top-level properties. The table below groups them so that the right area can be found quickly; each property's type, permitted values, nullability, and example are documented in full on the Course schema.

Group	Properties
Identity and naming	`id`, `slug`, `shortTitle`, `courseCode`, `sectionCode`, `contentType`, `sys`
Descriptive content	`courseAbout`, `courseShortDescription`, `courseObjective`, `syllabus`, `prerequisites`, `notes`, `terms`, `cardImage`, `courseUrl`
Categorisation and grouping	`courseCategories`, `courseModality`, `reportingGroup`, `groupingKey`, `groupingTitle`, `courseGroup`, `mode`
Class dates and schedule	`courseStartDate`, `courseEndDate`, `courseStartDateWithTimezone`, `courseEndDateWithTimezone`, `courseSchedule`, `timezone`, `isSelfPaced`
Enrollment dates	`startDate`, `endDate`, `startDateWithTimezone`, `endDateWithTimezone`, `enrollmentStartDate`, `enrollmentEndDate`, `enrollmentStartDateWithTimezone`, `enrollmentEndDateWithTimezone`
Pricing and payment	`priceInCents`, `depositEnabled`, `depositAmount`, `depositPercentage`, `depositPriceId`, `installmentOption`
Availability and capacity	`isActive`, `courseAvailability`, `isPathwayOnly`, `requiresMembership`, `isWaitlistEnabled`, `accept_waitlist_enrollment_only`, `minNumOfEnrollments`, `maxNumOfEnrollments`, `learners_count`, `creditHours`
LMS connection	`lms`, `lmsInstance`, `isLmsHosted`, `canvasCourseId`, `moodleCourseId`, `canvasAuthenticationProviderAssociation`, `lmsAccessStartDate`, `lmsAccessEndDate`, `lmsAccessStartDateWithTimezone`, `lmsAccessEndDateWithTimezone`, `lmsIndefiniteAccess`
Related records	`parentCourse`, `partner`, `school`, `instructorsCollection`, `location`

Property names to note

A few properties carry names that developed before their current meaning settled. They behave consistently and are safe to rely on; the notes below simply describe what each one contains, so that the right property is chosen the first time.

startDate holds the enrollment start date, and endDate the enrollment end date. The first and last days of class are courseStartDate and courseEndDate. Where several sessions of the same course run on different dates, the class dates are what distinguish them.

Timestamps are returned in UTC. NLP administrators enter dates in local time, so a date entered late in the evening can appear as the following calendar day when the UTC value is displayed directly. Each date property has a WithTimezone companion carrying the same instant in the course's local zone, named by the timezone property.

Some timestamps include fractional seconds and some do not. A parser that accepts both forms will handle every value.

Several properties are arrays assembled from related records — instructorsCollection, location, and the schedule array within courseSchedule. Each carries a selected set of fields from its source record rather than the complete record.

Eleven pairs of properties always return the same value. Both members of each pair are documented, and either may be used. Each property's entry in the reference names its counterpart, so the relationship is visible wherever it is encountered.

Property	Returns the same value as
`enrollmentStartDate`	`startDate`
`enrollmentStartDateWithTimezone`	`startDateWithTimezone`
`enrollmentEndDate`	`endDate`
`enrollmentEndDateWithTimezone`	`endDateWithTimezone`
`courseGroup.groupingKey`	`groupingKey`
`courseGroup.groupingTitle`	`groupingTitle`
`courseStartDate`	`courseSchedule.schedule_start_date`
`courseEndDate`	`courseSchedule.schedule_end_date`
`lmsInstance.lms`	`lms`
`instructorsCollection.items[].profilePicture.url`	`instructorsCollection.items[].profilePictureUrl`
`instructorsCollection.items[].sys.id`	`instructorsCollection.items[].contentfulId`

Any other access rules not covered above

Overview

Beyond the partner header, a handful of rules govern which courses appear in a response and what may be done with them. They fall into three areas: how a catalogue is scoped, which courses are visible, and how search and filtering combine.

Details

Scope. X-Noodle-Partner-Id is required on both endpoints, and every response is scoped to that instance. A child instance Partner ID is the normal choice, as described under Environments above.

Method. Both endpoints are GET. No course attribute can be created, updated, or deleted through this API.

Visibility. Four properties determine whether a course reaches a learner, and a course may be present in a response while still being unavailable for enrollment:

Property	Effect
`isActive`	Controls whether the course appears in the API load at all, and therefore on any external site reading the API.
`isPathwayOnly`	When `true`, the course is available only as a component of a pathway. It is hidden from the learner catalogue and cannot be enrolled in or purchased on its own.
`requiresMembership`	When `true`, only learners holding at least one matching active membership can enroll in or purchase the course.
`courseAvailability`	Carries the current enrollment state: `Open`, `Upcoming`, `Waitlisting`, `Full`, or `Closed`.

Search. The search parameter is case-insensitive and matches on any of short_title, course_modality, course_categories, grouping_key, and grouping_title.

Filtering. Filters combine with and: a response contains only the courses matching every filter supplied. The available filters are min_start_date, max_start_date, min_end_date, max_end_date, min_price, max_price, content_type, content_title, grouping_key, grouping_title, reporting_group, and is_waitlist_enabled.

Pagination. Pagination is optional. Supply page[size] and page[number] to page through results; meta.count reports the total number of matching courses.

Sections. On Get Course by Slug, include=sections returns the course's available sections alongside the course itself.

Field coverage. The properties documented here are the subset of NLP's internal record that is exposed over the API. Where a value is visible in the NLP administrative interface but absent from a response, Noodle can confirm whether it is exposed and advise on alternatives.

Sample data API loads

Overview

A catalogue response returns a data array of course objects and a meta object carrying the result count. The example below shows the shape of a single-result response, abbreviated to the properties most integrations read first.

Details

Complete responses for every search, filter, and pagination case are saved against List Courses and Get Course by Slug.

{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "slug": "flavorful-foundations-101",
      "shortTitle": "Flavorful Foundations 101",
      "priceInCents": 55500,
      "isActive": true,
      "startDate": "2024-11-22",
      "learners_count": 160,
      "lms": "moodle",
      "mode": ["Audit"],
      "cardImage": {
        "url": "https://assets.noodle.com/yzn2zv0qt1y1/4fGHkzl2qGL5WiwiWE0ieZ/dd27f43874bfb0666c9f8aa4f1db7ebc/spices.jpg"
      },
      "contentType": null,
      "courseModality": null,
      "courseCategories": null,
      "groupingKey": null,
      "groupingTitle": null,
      "courseSchedule": null,
      "location": null
    }
  ],
  "meta": {
    "count": 1
  }
}

Null values are returned rather than omitted, so a property is always present on the object even where no value is set.

List courses

GET/v2/courses

Gets all courses provided a partner_id header.

Supports optional pagination.

X-Noodle-Partner-Id header is required to call this endpoint.

Shopping Cart API

Endpoints for the anonymous and logged-in shopping cart experience.

Overview

A cart is created on a learner's behalf, courses are added to it, and the learner is then handed to NLP to complete checkout and enrollment. Cart state is shared with NLP in both directions: items added here appear in the learner's NLP cart, and items removed in NLP are reflected back.

Get or Create Cart is the entry point. Called with the partner header alone it creates a cart and returns a session_id identifying the shopper and an id identifying the cart. Store the session_id and send it in X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id on later requests; use the id in the path of the remaining endpoints.

Checkout and enrollment take place on the NLP domain, behind authentication. The cart_url property in the response is where a learner is sent to complete a purchase.

Details on properties

Three objects appear across the cart endpoints.

Cart is the container returned by Get or Create Cart.

Property	Notes
`id`	The cart's identifier, used in the path of the remaining cart endpoints.
`session_id`	The shopper's identifier, sent back in `X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id`.
`partner_id`	The instance the cart belongs to.
`cart_url`	The NLP address where the learner completes checkout.
`cart_items`	The items currently in the cart.
`cart_items_count`	The number of items in the cart.
`subtotal`	The cart total, in the same units as `priceInCents` on a course.
`user_id`	The NLP user once a learner has authenticated; `null` for an anonymous cart.

CartItem is one course in a cart.

Property	Notes
`id`	The cart item's identifier, used in the path when updating or removing it.
`shopping_cart_id`	The cart the item belongs to.
`course_id`	The database identifier of the course, from `id` on a course object.
`external_id`	The Contentful identifier of the course, from `sys.id` on a course object.
`quantity`	Always `1`.
`cart_item_metadata`	Free-form key-value data carried with the item, including enrollment options.
`created_at`, `updated_at`	Timestamps for the item.

AddCartItemRequest is the body sent when adding an item. Supply either course_id or external_id, together with quantity; cart_item_metadata is optional.

Any other access rules not covered above

Overview

The cart is scoped to a single instance and a single shopper, and a course may be added to it only once. The rules below cover identification, the limits on what a cart may contain, and where the learner is handed over.

Details

Scope. X-Noodle-Partner-Id is required on every cart endpoint. After the first call, X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id identifies the shopper's cart. A cart is associated with one Partner ID; where a site draws on several instances, the behaviour for combining items from different partners into one cart is not yet defined, and Noodle can advise on the current position.

Environment alignment. The catalogue endpoint and the cart endpoint should point at the same environment. Each works independently, so a mismatch is difficult to identify from behaviour alone.

Availability. The shopping cart is enabled per instance.

Identifying a course. Either course_id or external_id may be supplied when adding an item. Courses created recently may have no external_id, in which case course_id is used.

One enrollment per course. quantity is always 1, because a course cannot be enrolled in twice. Adding a course already in the cart returns 409 Conflict.

Enrollment type. Passing an enrollment_data.team_id object inside cart_item_metadata enrolls the learner as a team member of the given team. Without it, the learner is enrolled as a solo learner.

Updating an item. The update endpoint is not yet supported. Cart items cannot be modified and their quantity cannot be changed. The endpoint is reserved for future support of cart_item_metadata updates, to allow a learner to switch between team and solo enrollment.

Completing a purchase. Checkout and enrollment happen on the NLP domain, behind authentication. Send the learner to the address in cart_url.

Sample data API loads

Overview

Two payloads cover the common path: the cart returned when a session is established, and the item returned when a course is added to it.

Details

Complete responses for every cart endpoint are saved against the endpoints themselves.

A newly created cart, from Get or Create Cart. Store session_id and id.

{
  "data": {
    "id": 277,
    "session_id": "8124e2e4-c4b8-40e5-a101-4ea0c31ede41",

Get or create a cart

GET/cart

This is the entrypoint of the shopping cart flow, returning the necessary data to interact with the shopping cart.

Creating a Shopping Cart

You just need to call this endpoint with a valid X-Noodle-Partner-Id header and it'll return the following values that you'll need to save:

session_id: This will be your user's identifier, you can save this in localStorage or cookies and send it in a X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id header to fetch said user's cart.
id: This is the shopping cart's id, used for calling all other shopping cart endpoints.

Getting a Shopping Cart

You can fetch a user's shopping cart using the aforementioned session_id. You just need to send the session_id in a X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id header alongside the correct X-Noodle-Partner-Id header value and it'll return your user's shopping cart.

Parameters

Name	In	Type		Description
`X-Noodle-Cart-Session-Id`	header	string	Optional	An existing shopper session. Omit to create a new cart.

Responses

Status	Meaning	Returns
`200`	An existing cart.	`CartResponse`
`201`	A new cart was created.	`CartResponse`

Add an item to a cart

POST/cart/{shopping_cart_id}/cart_items

Lets you add a cart item to a shopping cart.

You need to provide the id of the shopping cart that was saved from the Get or Create Cart endpoint.

The body expects:

course_id: The database id of the course you're trying to add to the shopping cart. This can be found inside course.id from our v2/courses api. It can be sent instead of external_id.
external_id: The Contentful id of the course you're trying to add to the shopping cart. This can be found inside course.sys.id from our v2/courses api. New courses won't have a value in this field, can be replaced by course_id.
quantity: Should always be 1 for now, as courses cannot be enrolled in twice.
cart_item_metadata: Optional key, you can add any key-value pair to this. You can add an enrollment_data.team_id object to enroll the user as a team_member in the provided team. Otherwise, they'll be enrolled as solo-learners by default.

The endpoint will throw a 409 Conflict error if you try to add the same cart item twice as courses cannot be bought/enrolled in twice.

WordPress integration

How Noodle's own WordPress marketing sites consume this API, and what those sites hold outside it.

Overview

Three plugins connect an Engage CMS site to NLP. One retrieves and stores course data, one renders it on the page, and one adds the shopping cart. Together they produce a partner-branded marketing site whose course information stays aligned with NLP.

This section describes their behaviour so that an integration can reproduce it where needed. It is written for projects that will replace or rebuild an existing Noodle-built marketing site.

Noodle CMS Connections - Data held outside the API

Overview

Noodle builds partner marketing sites on Engage CMS, a WordPress theme and plugin suite that reads this API. Those sites display a combination of API data and information maintained locally in the CMS.

This distinction matters most when planning a project that will rebuild such a site against the API directly. Content that a site currently displays may originate in the CMS rather than in NLP, and would need an equivalent home in the new architecture. Establishing the proportion early is the single most useful input to an estimate.

Details

Three categories of data appear on a course record in the CMS:

API-sourced — retrieved from NLP and normalised. Available to any client calling the API.
Locally overridden — an administrator has replaced an NLP value for marketing purposes. NLP remains authoritative; the override exists only in the CMS.
CMS-only — no NLP equivalent. These fields were introduced where partner marketing requirements moved ahead of the platform.

An integration reading the API directly receives category 1. Categories 2 and 3 are held in the CMS and would need to be reproduced.

Properties with no API equivalent

Field	Type or values	Notes
Format	Asynchronous, Synchronous	Maintained in the CMS as a filter criterion. Related to but distinct from the API's `isSelfPaced` property, from which a Format label can be derived.
Credit eligibility	Yes, No	Indicates whether a course may count toward degree options.
Partner	Text or select	Maintained in the CMS. It does not correspond to `school.university.name`, which describes something different.
CEU credits	Numeric, decimals supported	NLP does not model credits. Held as CMS metadata and displayed with a configurable label.
Hide from results	Boolean	A display control. Removes a course from carousels and filtered results while leaving it published and reachable by direct URL.
Image alt text and ARIA labels	Text	Images retrieved from the API arrive without alt text, caption, or description. Accessibility metadata is authored in the CMS.
Administrator-defined fields	Single-select or multi-select	Site administrators can add categorisations for faceted search. The set varies by site.
Course hours	Numeric	Held in CMS course settings.
Duration	Free text	A CMS marketing field.
Continuing education fields	Numeric or yes/no	Held in the CMS; related to but separate from CEU credits.

API properties commonly overridden locally

These carry API values by default, which a CMS administrator may replace.

Field	API property	Behaviour
Title	`shortTitle`	The CMS value controls card and page display.
Featured image	`cardImage.url`	The API image is the default; a CMS featured image takes precedence.
Categories	`courseCategories`	Combined. The API supplies a defined list; administrators may add site-specific values.
Modality	`courseModality`	The API returns `online`, `in-person`, and `hybrid`. CMS filter lists may differ.
Price	`priceInCents`	A CMS-editable starting price is available, used chiefly for manually created cards.
Short description	`courseShortDescription`	CMS-editable. Nothing is rendered when the API value is empty.
Prerequisites	`prerequisites`	The API value is used first, with the CMS value as a fallback.
Course URL	`courseUrl`	Overridable per course. Implementations may append `enroll=true` to direct learners into the NLP enrollment flow.
Course description	`courseAbout`	Overridable per course.

How local edits are preserved

A record-level flag marks a course as locally edited, and the scheduled sync leaves those values in place. Two related behaviours follow from it:

Manually created course records are exempt from the rule that removes courses no longer present in the API.
When a course is deleted in NLP, the corresponding CMS record is removed.

The wider design principle is worth carrying into any reimplementation: record ownership is most reliable when stored explicitly rather than inferred from whether a record appears in an API response.

Details

NLP Courses is the data layer. It calls the API, retrieves course objects, and stores them as WordPress records alongside instructors and schools. It provides the administrative tools for configuration, refresh scheduling, and the local overrides described above.

Engage NLP is the presentation layer, supplying the page blocks that render course data. It expects data already retrieved by NLP Courses.

NLP Courses Shopping Cart adds the cart experience to the marketing site and keeps it aligned with NLP.

Normalisation

Retrieved values are mapped to stable internal names before rendering. This keeps display code independent of API naming conventions, which vary between properties, and confines any future API change to a single mapping layer. Some values are derived during this step, such as generating several image sizes from one source image.

Grouping courses

Courses carry a grouping key and grouping title, which relate several course records that should be presented together while remaining separate for enrollment. A programme running several sessions is the common case.

The grouping key determines which page layout applies:

A single-course page presents one enrollable course. It applies where a course carries no grouping key, or is the only active record with its key.
A grouped page presents several sessions on one page, typically one panel per session. It applies where several records share a grouping key.

Where a grouped page exists, the individual sessions are usually suppressed from catalogue listings so that the group is presented once. Two controls do this: a per-course setting that hides a course from listings while keeping its page reachable, and a per-block setting that suppresses a whole grouping key. The per-course setting takes precedence.

Automatic page creation

An administrator designates an existing page as a template. When the sync encounters a new course, it creates a page from that template, associates it with the course, and publishes it at an indexable address. New pages are not added to navigation menus; they are reached through catalogue listings and direct links, and can be edited afterwards.

The benefit of retaining this behaviour in a rebuild is that a change made in NLP reaches the site without a second edit. An approach based on manual entry or file import introduces that second step for every change, not only for new courses.

Refresh scheduling

Refresh runs on a per-site schedule — Never, Hourly, Twice daily, Daily, or Weekly — following the site's timezone, and can also be triggered manually to pick up a change immediately.

Records are processed in batches of up to fifty, with progress reported by data source. Selecting Never is a practical way to hold a site's content steady while a large set of changes is made in NLP.

Conditional rendering

Blocks display a column, field, or section only where a value is present. Enabling a field in a block does not cause it to appear if the underlying value is empty. This behaviour appears throughout the block library and is worth reproducing in any equivalent implementation.

Search indexing

Faceted filtering is provided by an indexing plugin, and some values are copied into separate fields so they can be indexed. Reindexing runs automatically after a sync and is also required after a change to the facet configuration. Any field added to a filter carries this indexing step with it, and sorting chronologically requires the relevant date to be exposed as an indexed value.
