Setting up permissions

In order for the plugin to serve content, manage users and create and confirm orders, you must enable some endpoints in the Users & Permissions Pluginfor the Masterclass plugin.

For Authenticated users, enable the following:

From courses:

• checkLecture
• getClassesCompleted
• getCourseDetails
• getItemsPurchased
• getMyLearning
• getPlayAuth
• resumeCourse

From orders:

• confirm

• find
• findOne

From categories:

• categoryTree
• index
• navigation
• summary

• find
• findOne
• findSlugs

• update

This last one is for Mux to notify through webhooks when a video has been successfully uploaded and is ready. This will require that you configure a webhook in the dashboard of Mux account pointing to https://your-strapi-app.com/api/masterclass/upload-status

Creating courses and uploading lectures is done through the Strapi Admin Dashboard.

Courses are organised in categoires, which can be nested.

The API endpoints provide a way to list categories and information on their courses, as well as authentication keys to play videos for students and also marking the lectures as seen to register their progress as they watch the videos.
