14. Edit Schedule
Definition
This POST API is used to edit a schedule/ test link.
*PDF documentation reference - Section 5.2 Edit Schedule for a particular Assessment
Endpoints
- https://api.mettl.com/v2/schedules/{access-key}/edit
- https://api.mettl.com/v1/schedules/{access-key}/edit
where, access-key is the unique key of the schedule/ test link you want to edit.
You can get an access-key from the test link settings in your dashboard (alphanumeric key at the end of the 'Link to Share') or via API by using Create Schedule API , Get All Schedules in Assessment API or Get All Schedules in Account API.
Webhooks
This API has support for configuring webhooks for sending live test and result notifications at the schedule/ test link level. You can also get live notifications of following events by setting the callback URL in the schedule properties within the sc JSON-
- When a candidate’s test starts (testStartNotificationUrl)
- When a candidate’s test ends (testFinishNotificationUrl)
- When a candidate’s test result gets generated (testGradedNotificationUrl)
- When a candidate is allowed to resume their expired test (testResumeEnabledForExpiredTestURL)
Query Parameters
In our REST APIs, Query Parameters have to be URL encoded as the data is being transmitted in the request URL. This is especially important for the asgn parameter and any parameters with JSON as they always contain characters that need to be URL encoded. Since ak and ts parameters don't contain any characters that need to be URL encoded, URL encoding of these parameters can be skipped.
Mandatory parameters
Query Parameter | Description |
| ak | This is your Public-API-Key, which Mettl uses to identify your account. |
| ts | This is the current UNIX or Epoch Timestamp (the number of seconds between 1970-01-01 00:00:00 and current UTC Time). Any current generated Timestamp will be valid for 24 hours only. |
| asgn | This is a unique Signature which has to be generated for each API request . The Signature is generated by creating a String-to-Sign and hashing it with your Private-API-Key using the HMAC-SHA256 (for version v2 and v3) or HMAC-SHA1 (for v1) hashing algorithm with Base-64 and URL encoding. Read more about the above Signature Generation Process in API Authentication and Signature Generation. |
| sc | This is a JSON string containing the details of the schedule/ test link to be edited. The format for the JSON is given below |
POST request syntax with mandatory parameters:
https://api.mettl.com/v2/schedules/{access-key}/edit?ak={Public-Api-Key}&ts={Timestamp}&asgn={Signature}&sc={Schedule-JSON}

Example
Request without Signature
a. POST request URL, with queries ak , ts and sc (URL encoded) but without asgn (Signature)
https://api.mettl.com/v2/schedules/0x0x0x0x0x/edit?ak=ab12c345-6789-0123-456d-78e9f0123456&ts=1635976200&sc=%7B%22access%22%3A%7B%22type%22%3A%22ByInvitation%22%2C%22sendEmail%22%3Atrue%2C%22candidates%22%3A%7B%22add%22%3A%5B%7B%22name%22%3A%22Name%22%2C%22email%22%3A%22name%40email.com%22%7D%5D%7D%7D%7D

String-to-Sign = "POST" + "https://api.mettl.com/v2/schedules/0x0x0x0x0x/edit" + "\n" + "ab12c345-6789-0123-456d-78e9f0123456" + "\n" + "{"access":{"type":"ByInvitation","sendEmail":true,"candidates":{"add":[{"name":"Name","email":"name@email.com"}]}}}" + "\n" + "1635976200"
c. Output of the Sting-to-Sign created above
ab12c345-6789-0123-456d-78e9f0123456
{"access":{"type":"ByInvitation","sendEmail":true,"candidates":{"add":[{"name":"Name","email":"name@email.com"}]}}}
1635976200
d. Private-API-Key to sign/hash the above Sting-to-Sign using HMAC-SHA256 (since API version is v2)
zy98x765-4321-0987-654w-32v1u0987654
e. Output of the generated Signature for asgn using the Sting-to-Sign and your Private-API-Key, hashed with HMAC-SHA256 (Base-64 and URL Encoded)
