Hello, I'm trying to integrate courses from edX official website with their API.. To do that, I follow the documentation in order to get my Client ID & Client Secret and, with this credential get my Token...
With Token I can make a Curl request and edX API returns a JSON file (image below) with all information about the courses in my catalog... How can I integrate this JSON information in my open edX platform??

Claudio,
The purpose of the APIs is to share the basic information about courses. The actual content of courses is owned by the creators/instructors. We do not license/distribute course content via API.

Hello Clinton and thank you for the answer..
I'm aware of courses owners and I don´t want publish the content of the course in my platform, I only want publish the basic information to let the students take the course on edX official platform.. So, It's possible for me publish the basic information in my platform (as attached in image) and on click the students get redirect to the official platform to enroll the course??

Yes. You have the data. It is up to you to determine how you display it to your users. This is not a feature of the platform, so all work should be done on your fork.

You could also reach out to XuetangX, who does much the same thing as you would like to.
The platform is AGPL-licensed, so odds are their code for this is somewhere public.
