Best results are obtained when using the most commonly used designation for a skill, a competency or a job. | | `lang` | *string* | `en` | Yes | Language of the LO such as `en` (english), `fr`(french), etc. Use the `/lang`endpoint to get the full list of languages currently supported by the API. | | `provider` | *string* | `youtube` | Yes | Provider of the LO such as `youtube`, `coursera`, `applebooks`, etc. Use the `/provider`endpoint to get the list of the providers currently supported by this endpoint. | | `sort` | *string* | `popularity` | Yes | Currently supported sorting order are `random` or `popularity`. If empty, response will be sorted by `popularity`. | | `match` | *string* | `best-effort` | Yes |

How strict the query parameters are applied. Two matches are currently supported:

| | `model` | *string* | `strict` | Yes |

The model used by the API to determine if a LO is relevant based on the provided keywords. Two models are currently supported:

| | `max` | *integer* | 10 | Yes | Maximum number of LO returned per page. Value must be between 1 to 20. | | `page` | *integer* | 0 | Yes | The number of returned page, starting at 0. | | `publisher` | | | No | Publishers are the organization(s) that offer and/or sell the LO. For`mooc`, `distance learning` or `training` this can be an university, a school or a training organization. | | `ageMax` | *integer* | | No | The maximum age associated to the LO. For example, if you want to see videos for kids only you can set `ageMax=10`. | | `ageMin` | *integer* | | No | The minimum age associated to the LO. For example, if you want to see textbooks for adult only you can set `ageMin=18`. | | `learningTimeMax` | *integer* | | No | The maximum length of the LO in minute (`video` only). For example, if you want to see 5 min or less videos only, you can set `learningTimeMax=5`. | | `learningTimeMin` | *integer* | | No | The minimum length of the LO in minute (`video` only). For example, if you want to see 1h or more videos only, you can set `learningTimeMin=60`. | | `levelMax` | *decimal* | | No | The maximum level of the LO. The level is indicated as decimal number ranging from -1 (beginner) to 1 (advanced). For example, if you want to see a MOOC with a level for beginner, you can set `levelMax=-0.5`. | | `levelMin` | *decimal* | | No | The minimum level of the LO. The level is indicated as decimal number ranging from -1 (beginner) to 1 (advanced). For example, if you want to see a MOOC with a level for intermediate or above, you can set `levelMin=0.2`. | | `popularityMin` | *decimal* | | No | Popularity is an indicator of the popularity of the LO as measured by its number of likes, stars, views, etc. This parameter enables you to set a threshold to filter out LO below a certain popularity. This value ranges from 0 (low popularity) to 1 (exceptionally popular). | | `address` | *string* | | No | The address around which you want to search. Works only for geolocated learning objects (eg `training`). Used in conjuction with `distanceMax.` | | `distanceMax` | *integer* | | No | The maximum distance within which you want to search. Works only for geolocated learning objects (eg `training`). Used in conjuction with `address.` | | `free` | *bool* | | No | This allows you to filter by free content only (`free=true`) or paid content only (`free=false`). If empty, you'll get both free and paid contents. | {% hint style="info" %} If you want to enforce strictly one specific query paremeter, you can add `!important` after it. This parameter wil be applied strictly even if the global `match` parameter is set to `best-effort`. {% endhint %} ### Code examples See [here](https://rapidapi.com/inokufu-search-api/api/learning-objects-v2/) for **Rapid API** codes examples.
