Add a SC user to the access list of the white-label study bundle. The SC account provided in the POST body will be used in an attempt to add it to the access list. The POST body needs to be JSON.

{
  "sc_account": "ac12345"
}

If this call was successful the SC user will need to restart SC to automatically download the study bundle file. The SC user can make use of the study for as long as the user is on the access list. If this attempt was unsuccessful the reason will be displayed in the error message.

The SC user can find their SC account name by going to SC menu: Help >> About. The name will be displayed in the pop-up window. The full displayed name should be used, the name is not case-sensitive.

{
  "code": 200,
  "message": "Success message"
}

Update a SC user on the access list of the white-label study bundle that is under management for the used api-key. This call can only be used when an user is already present on the access list. The POST body needs to be JSON.

{
  "sc_account": "ac12345",
  "old_sc_account": "ac12345"
}

A normal use case would be when a user has changed SC account and needs access the the study bundle updated. In that case the update call can be used. Alternatively one could also call remove for the old SC account and add for the new account. The result of this update call (success or error) will be displayed in the output message.

Remove a SC user from the access list of the white-label study bundle that is under management for the used api key. The POST body needs to be JSON.

{
  "sc_account": "ac12345"
}

Removing a SC account from the access list will result in no longer having access to the custom study bundle. The study file will still be present for the SC user, but can no longer be used. If the study is used there will be an error message in the SC message log to explain the procedure to get access. The result of this remove call (success or error) will be displayed in the output message. This api does not keep track of SC accounts that were previously on the access list.
