The API endpoint as of April 19, 2016 is https://content.osu.edu/v2/classes/
Searches for classes can be requested by appending the word 'search', and specifying the search query as a URL-encoded parameter labeled as 'q'. For example:
https://content.osu.edu/v2/classes/search?q=Software
searches for all classes associated with the term "Software"
The app advertises that is possible to query classes using:
- Academic Program
- Building
- Campus
- Course Title
- Description
- Instructor
- Subject
