Wyzant Tutor Search API

openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Wyzant Partner Data API
  description: >-
    Partner/affiliate data interface for the Wyzant tutoring marketplace, served
    from data.wyzant.com. This is NOT a public consumer API for booking lessons,
    messaging tutors, or handling payments - those actions happen only through
    the wyzant.com product. This interface is available to approved affiliates
    (via Wyzant's ShareASale-based partner program) and exposes two operations:
    a real-time Search API that queries the live tutor database, and a Data Feed
    that downloads a full snapshot of all active tutors. Both are authenticated
    with a per-partner API key issued from the partner dashboard at
    https://www.wyzant.com/partner/advanced/api and return XML or JSON. Request
    parameters and endpoint URLs below are taken from Wyzant's published API &
    Data Feed documentation; the response schema is modeled from the documented
    field list and is illustrative, not an authoritative contract.
