# Blackboard Learn REST API (BU tenant)

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/boston/blackboard-learn/  
**Provider:** Boston University — https://apis.io/providers/boston/  
**Base URL:** https://learn.bu.edu/learn/api/public/v1  
**Documentation:** https://learn.bu.edu/

Blackboard Learn REST API (BU tenant) is one of 6 APIs that [Boston University](https://apis.io/providers/boston/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Learning Management, Blackboard, Education Technology, and Teaching. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Boston University's learning management system is Blackboard Learn, running on the vendor's infrastructure behind a bu.edu hostname. The Learn public REST API responds at /learn/api/public/v1/ — the unauthenticated system version endpoint returns Learn 4000.21.0 build rel.28+435d029 — while data endpoints such as /courses return HTTP 401. The contract is Blackboard's; only the tenancy is Boston University's, so no Blackboard specification is saved under this institution's slug.
