Trailhead Leaderboard API

A Golang app that makes callouts to trailblazer.me/ and retrieves Trailblazer User data which can then be used in other applications.

🚨 Note: In order to retrieve data for a specific Trailhead User, they must have their profile set to public.

Trailhead changes their services occasionally so this can break at any time!

Installation

If you have Go installed, you can run it locally by using the run command on main.go.

$ go run main.go

Endpoints

This app has a few different endpoints for accessing public Trailhead data.

Profile Data

/trailblazer/matruff/profile

This endpoint returns public profile information found on trailblazer.me like "about me", company info, name, and profile/banner photos. Example

Badge Data

This endpoint returns badges earned by the Trailblazer. The basic call without any options only gives a max of 8 at a time, representing your most recently earned badges.

/trailblazer/matruff/badges

You can also filter badges by sending a string at the end of the URL without or without optional count. Possible filter values are: all, module, superbadge, event, and project. Example

/trailblazer/matruff/badges/superbadge

or

/trailblazer/matruff/badges/all/24

The GraphQl endpoint returns a pageInfo record in the response that you can use to query for additional pages past the first count you provide. For example, in your first response for a coutn of 16 you'll get the endCursor value to use in your next callout to get the page after it. Pass that at the end of the API endpoint and you'll get the next 16 results. The response also tells you if there is a next page.

pageInfo response example:

"pageInfo": {
    "__typename": "PageInfo",
    "endCursor": "eyJzIjoiMDI2NmQzOGEtZjc1MS0zOTEwLTQ0NGItOW[...]",
    "hasNextPage": true,
    "startCursor": "eyJzIjoiMDI5YWQzNjItYWQ0Mi0yOTY0LWNlMTMt[...]",
    "hasPreviousPage": false
}

Using endCursor as after:

/trailblazer/matruff/badges/all/16/24eyJzIjoiMDI2NmQzOGEtZjc1MS0aOTEwLItOWU4MzRx[...]

Certifications Data

/trailblazer/matruff/certifications

This endpoint returns Certifications the Trailblazer has achieved. Example
