For Agents
Programmatically list instructor courses, get course details. Covers 6 operations with bearer authentication.
Use for: I need to instructor courses, I want to course details, Search for course reviews, Find all course q&a threads
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for education only.
The Udemy Instructor API allows instructors to programmatically access and manage their courses, reviews, and performance data on the Udemy platform. Instructors can retrieve course listings, student reviews, Q&A threads, course performance metrics, and revenue reports. The API exposes 6 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Udemy Instructor API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fudemy.com%2Fudemy" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fudemy.com%2Fudemy" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with Udemy Instructor API.
List instructor courses
Get course details
Integrate Udemy Instructor API into automated workflows
Query and filter Udemy Instructor API records by parameters
Monitor Udemy Instructor API operational status and events
GET STARTED
Patterns agents use Udemy Instructor API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Education Operations
Use the Udemy Instructor API to perform education operations programmatically. The API provides 6 endpoints covering core functionality including list instructor courses, get course details, list course reviews.
Call GET /taught-courses/courses to list instructor courses
Automated Courses Management
Automate courses operations by combining multiple Udemy Instructor API endpoints. Agents can get course details and then list course reviews in a single workflow.
Call GET /taught-courses/courses/{course_id} to get course details, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Udemy Instructor API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'list instructor courses', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Udemy Instructor API by hand means attaching a bearer token on every call, pointing at the instructor-api host, and matching each course, review, and revenue operation to its request shape yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Udemy Instructor API from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Udemy puts the course id in the URL path (/taught-courses/courses/{course_id}), so a rule can pin your agent to one course: it can read that course, its reviews, questions, and performance and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so the revenue report is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
Your Udemy token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'list my taught courses' or 'read a course's reviews', and Jentic returns the matching Udemy Instructor API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Udemy Instructor API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Udemy Instructor API use?
The Udemy Instructor API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I list instructor courses with the Udemy Instructor API?
Yes. Use the GET /taught-courses/courses endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Udemy Instructor API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I list instructor courses through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'list instructor courses'. Jentic returns the matching Udemy Instructor API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Udemy Instructor API have?
The Udemy Instructor API exposes 6 endpoints covering courses, reviews, qa operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Udemy Instructor API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Udemy operations and which credentials the agent may use. Udemy puts the course id in the URL path (/taught-courses/courses/{course_id}), so a rule can pin the agent to a single course and let it read only that course, its reviews, its questions, and its performance metrics. You also choose which operations are exposed, so the revenue report (GET /revenue-report) stays out of reach unless you add it.
