Classes

/groups

A class is who a group-scoped event is about. A static class keeps a list you add to; a dynamic class holds whoever's attributes contain its filter, so nobody keeps it up. Beside the classes somebody keeps are temporary lists, picked by a person for one send: you can see them, but a key cannot change one and an event cannot name one. In the High school pack a class is, for example, “5A”.

GETList classes

Requires groups:read. Returns a bare JSON array, by name. Temporary lists are left out unless you ask for them with temporary=true: an event cannot name one, so a system choosing a group_id is better off never seeing them.

Query parameters

limitinteger · default 50 · max 200

offsetinteger · default 0

qstring · optional · max 100

Matches the name. It is a search, not a lookup, so it cannot be combined with external_ref.

kindstatic | dynamic · optional

derivedboolean · optional

true for the classes Raven keeps up from student attributes; false for the ones somebody keeps.

statusactive | inactive · optional

temporaryboolean · default false

true gives the lists people picked for sends instead.

external_refstring · optional · max 200

Your own id for the class, looked up exactly: an array of one, or an empty one. It is how a system finds the class it made after somebody here has renamed it. Refused with 400 alongside q: search, or look up.

Returns

200 with an array of classes. An empty array when nothing matches.

Response body
