Your Turnitin guidance is moving!
We’re migrating our content to a new guides site. We plan to fully launch this new site in July. We are making changes to our structure that will help with discoverability and content searching. You can preview the new site now. To help you get up to speed with the new guidance structure, please visit our orientation page .
Responses are returned in accordance with the XML-RPC specification (http://www. xmlrpc.com/). An example successful login response is shown below. The session id used to authenticate subsequent requests is returned in the sid element.
All responses include a api_status value, which may have the following values. The values use coding scheme similar to the familiar HTTP status codes.
Note: Note: the api_status is NOT the HTTP status for your request
200 - successful response, repsonse may contain messages but not errors
401 - request failed to provide an authenticated session id (sid) for the resource
403 - access to the requested resource is not authorized
404 - requested resource was not found
500 - error in the request, response payload may contain errors or messages
The date and time format for any response data is dateTime.iso8601.
