# Create a self-elected student test-out assignment

> 
Creates an AlphaTest test-out assignment for a student on a given subject.

The endpoint performs the following steps:
1. Looks up the student's email using their OneRoster sourcedId
2. Checks eligibility: the student must have an active enrollment in a non-placeholder course for the subject
3. Resolves eligibility and the target grade atomically
4. When advancing from mastered K-2 Reading to the next grade's test-out, requires a passed ORF screener at the mastered grade (summer-experience students retain their configured waiver while its feature flag is enabled)
5. Assigns exactly the target grade returned by the eligibility decision
6. For FastMath Kindergarten and above, selects the first unpassed operation from the active sequence and forwards its exact gradeAssessmentTag

The assignment payload sent to AlphaTest includes:
- `test_type`: "test out"
- `origin`: "self-elected"
- `metadata.gradeAssessmentTag` for FastMath Kindergarten and above (PreK accuracy assignments remain untagged)

Will fail if:
- The student does not exist or has no email
- The student does not have an active enrollment for the subject (or the course has placementPlaceholder set to true)
- The assignment would be the student's entry into a gated subject and the subject's all-source placement prerequisites are unmet while FF_TEST_OUT_ENTRY_PLACEMENT_GATE is enabled
- Advancing from mastered K-2 Reading is still blocked by that grade's ORF gate
- The test-out grade cannot be determined (no highest grade mastered and no active course sequence with assessment stages)
- The AlphaTest API returns an error

    # Authentication


    All endpoints require authentication using the `Authorization: Bearer
    <token>` header.


    The token can be obtained with:


    ```

    curl -X POST
    https://prod-beyond-timeback-api-2-idp.auth.us-east-1.amazoncognito.com/oauth2/token
    \

    -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \

    -d
    "grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=<your-client-id>&client_secret=<your-client-secret>"

    ```


    Use the correct IDP server depending on the environment you're using:


    IDP Server for this environment:

    ```

    https://prod-beyond-timeback-api-2-idp.auth.us-east-1.amazoncognito.com

    ```

    application.


    # Pagination


    Our API uses offset pagination for list endpoints. Paginated responses
    include the following fields:


    - `offset`: Offset for the next page of results

    - `limit`: Number of items per page (default: 100, maximum: 3000)


    **Note:** While the OneRoster specification does not define a maximum limit,
    this implementation enforces a maximum of 3000 items per page to prevent
    abuse and ensure optimal performance.


    Example request:


    ```

    GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users?offset=20&limit=20

    ```


    All listing endpoints support offset pagination.


    # Filtering


    All listing endpoints support filtering using the `filter` query parameter,
    following 1EdTech's filtering specification.


    The filter should be a string with the following format:


    ```

    ?filter=[field][operator][value]

    ```


    Example request:


    ```

    GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users?filter=status='active'

    ```


    Example request with multiple filters:


    ```

    GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users?filter=status='active' AND
    name='John'

    ```


    **Filtering by nested relations is not supported**.


    # Sorting


    All listing endpoints support sorting using the `sort` and `orderBy` query
    parameters, following 1EdTech's sorting specification


    Example request:


    ```

    GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users?sort=lastName&orderBy=asc

    ```


    # Proprietary Extensions


    This implementation includes proprietary extensions that extend beyond the
    official OneRoster 1.2 specification to provide additional functionality.


    ## Search Parameter


    In addition to the standard `filter` parameter, this implementation provides
    a `search` query parameter for simplified free-text searching:


    ```

    GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users?search=john

    ```


    **Purpose**: The `search` parameter enables convenient text-based queries
    across multiple fields simultaneously, whereas the standard `filter`
    parameter requires specifying exact field names and operators:


    ```

    # Search parameter - searches across multiple fields automatically

    GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users?search=john


    # Equivalent using standard filter parameter

    GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users?filter=givenName~'john' OR
    familyName~'john'

    ```


    The `search` parameter performs case-insensitive partial matching across
    predefined fields for each endpoint, providing a more user-friendly querying
    experience.


    ## OneRoster 1.2 Standard Parameters


    The official OneRoster 1.2 specification defines these standard parameters:


    - `limit` - pagination limit

    - `offset` - pagination offset

    - `sort` - field to sort by

    - `orderBy` - sort direction (asc/desc)

    - `filter` - filtering expression

    - `fields` - field selection


    ## Affected Endpoints


    The proprietary `search` parameter is available on the following endpoints:


    **Rostering API**:


    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/academicSessions/`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/classes/`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/classes/{classSourcedId}/students`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/classes/{classSourcedId}/teachers`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/courses/`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/courses/{courseSourcedId}/classes`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/demographics/`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/enrollments/`

    - `GET
    /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/schools/{schoolSourcedId}/classes/{classSourcedId}/students`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/rostering/v1p2/users/`


    **Gradebook API**:


    - `GET /ims/oneroster/gradebook/v1p2/assessmentLineItems/`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/gradebook/v1p2/assessmentResults/`

    - `GET
    /ims/oneroster/gradebook/v1p2/classes/{classSourcedId}/students/{studentSourcedId}/results`

    - `GET /ims/oneroster/gradebook/v1p2/results/`


    **Resources API**:


    - `GET /ims/oneroster/resources/v1p2/resources/`


    ## Parameter Usage Guide


    ### Filter Parameter


    The standard `filter` parameter provides precise control over queries using
    these operators:


    - `=` - Exact match

    - `!=` - Not equal

    - `~` - Contains (case-insensitive)

    - `>`, `>=`, `<`, `<=` - Comparison operators

    - `@` - In list (comma-separated values)


    ### Logical Operators


    Combine multiple conditions in filter expressions:


    - `AND` - Both conditions must be true

    - `OR` - Either condition must be true


    ### Usage Examples


    ```bash

    # Simple text search across multiple fields

    GET /users?search=john


    # Equivalent precise filtering

    GET /users?filter=givenName~'john' OR familyName~'john'


    # Complex filtering with multiple conditions

    GET /users?filter=status='active' AND givenName~'john'


    # Advanced filtering with different operators

    GET /users?filter=dateLastModified>'2023-01-01' AND status='active'

    ```


    ## Search Fields by Endpoint


    Different endpoints search across these predefined fields:


    - **Users**: `givenName`, `familyName`, `email`

    - **Courses**: `title`, `courseCode`

    - **Classes**: `title`

    - **Organizations**: `name`


    ## Interoperability Notes


    The `search` parameter is a proprietary extension specific to this
    implementation. Other OneRoster-compliant systems may only support the
    standard `filter` parameter. When building applications that need to work
    with multiple OneRoster providers, consider using the standard filtering
    approach.


    ## Additional Schema Fields


    ### AssessmentLineItem Extensions


    The AssessmentLineItem schema includes two proprietary fields that extend
    curriculum mapping capabilities:


    #### Component Field


    - **Field**: `component`

    - **Type**: Object reference (`{ sourcedId: string }`)

    - **Purpose**: Direct association between assessment line items and course
    components, enabling enhanced curriculum mapping and learning pathway
    tracking.


    #### ComponentResource Field


    - **Field**: `componentResource`

    - **Type**: Object reference (`{ sourcedId: string }`)

    - **Purpose**: Direct association between assessment line items and specific
    learning resources, supporting detailed content-to-assessment relationships
    and adaptive learning features.


    **Example Usage**:


    ```json

    {
      "sourcedId": "assessment-123",
      "title": "Chapter 5 Quiz",
      "component": { "sourcedId": "component-456" },
      "componentResource": { "sourcedId": "resource-789" }
    }

    ```


    ## Affected Endpoints


    ### Schema Extensions Availability


    The proprietary schema fields are available in:
