About the coloso.global API

The Coloso Global API gives developers structured access to the platform's entire creative course catalog across 11 endpoints. You can retrieve full course details including pricing metadata, instructor info, keywords, and card assets via get_product_details, or aggregate every published course at once with list_all_products. The API also surfaces editorial layers like best sellers, new releases, free classes, and promotional events.

Course Discovery and Search

The search_products endpoint accepts a query string and returns two arrays: courses (catalog matches) and searched (search-ranked results), along with a meta object containing searchKeyword, a total count, and a popularKeywords array. For browsing without a search term, list_categories returns a flat list of 33 category objects — each with a name, id, and url — which you can pass as category_id to get_category_products to retrieve every course in that category, optionally sorted by newest.

Product and Collection Endpoints

get_product_details accepts either a numeric course_id (faster) or a slug string and returns a data array with fields including id, slug, publicTitle, publicDescription, extras, and desktopCardAsset. For bulk collection, list_all_products aggregates and deduplicates courses across all major categories into a single products array with a total count. Editorial collections are available through get_best_sellers (sections like Best Class, Trending Topic, and Editor's Pick), get_new_releases (earlybird and upcoming courses), and get_free_classes (a flat array with a total integer).

Platform Intelligence

get_recommended_keywords returns a recommendedKeywords array of trending search strings alongside a meta.placeholder hint, useful for building autocomplete or surfacing what learners are currently searching. get_event_details takes an event_code slug (e.g. 'signature') and returns event title, description, image, and an associated courses array — covering Coloso's rotating promotional campaigns. The get_homepage endpoint returns banner objects keyed by type (e.g. NAVIGATION_COVER) and a today_top_10 array, though the latter may be empty depending on current site configuration.

Common use cases
  • Build a course recommendation engine using search_products with keyword queries and ranked result arrays.
  • Sync a local course database nightly using list_all_products to get deduplicated product records with slugs and card assets.
  • Display a 'free courses' section in an app by polling get_free_classes for its flat array and total count.
  • Track editorial curation trends by periodically fetching get_best_sellers sections like Trending Topic and Editor's Pick.
  • Power a category browsing UI by chaining list_categories with get_category_products filtered by category_id and sorted by newest.
  • Monitor promotional campaigns by querying get_event_details with known event_code slugs to extract featured course listings.
  • Populate an autocomplete search bar using recommendedKeywords from get_recommended_keywords.

Frequently asked questions
Does Coloso Global have an official public developer API?+
Coloso Global does not publish a documented public developer API. This Parse API provides structured access to the catalog data Coloso exposes to end users.
What does get_product_details return, and which input should I prefer?+
It returns a data array with fields including id, slug, publicTitle, publicDescription, extras, and desktopCardAsset. Providing a course_id (numeric string) is faster than providing a slug, but either works when only one is available.
Does the API expose course pricing or enrollment/purchase data?+
search_products results include pricing and product information fields. However, individual checkout flows, enrollment records, and user purchase history are not covered by any endpoint. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to add an endpoint targeting those surfaces if they become accessible.
Does today_top_10 from get_homepage always return data?+
No. The today_top_10 array may be empty depending on the current site configuration at request time. The banners object (keyed by type such as NAVIGATION_COVER) is the more consistently populated field from that endpoint.
Can I retrieve course reviews or learner ratings through this API?+
Course reviews and learner ratings are not currently exposed. The API covers catalog metadata, editorial collections, event listings, and search. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to add an endpoint for review or rating data.
