Certn API

This version of our API documentation is intended for our clients with Partner Accounts. This version provides information about some additional functionality that is unavailable for non-partner accounts. For non-partner clients we recommend using our Certn API v 1.0 documentation. You can select the Certn API v 1.0 documentation using the dropdown (top left) or navigate to Certn API v 1.0.
