Setting Up Pluralsight Integration
Overview
This guide walks you through connecting your Pluralsight account to Learn Amp. Once set up, your content admins can import courses from Pluralsight's extensive library directly into your Learn Amp platform.
The setup process involves generating an API key from Pluralsight and entering it in Learn Amp. It typically takes just a few minutes to complete.

Quick Start Guide
Step 1: Generate Your Pluralsight API Key

Click Add API Key
Configure your API key:
Select "Other" as the use case
Add a description (e.g., "Learn Amp Integration")
Enter a technical email contact
Enable the "Join Beta" setting
Copy your newly generated API key
💡 Tip: Store your API key securely – you'll need it in the next step and may need it again if you ever need to reconnect.
Step 2: Connect to Learn Amp
Log in to Learn Amp as an Admin or Owner
Navigate to Settings → Integrations from the sidebar
Find Pluralsight in the integrations list
Paste your API key into the API Key field
Click Save
⚠️ Warning: Keep your API key confidential. Anyone with access to this key can query your Pluralsight account.

Once saved, you should see the Pluralsight integration marked as active. You can verify it's working by:
Going to Manage → Items from the sidebar
Looking for the Pluralsight option in the content sources
Trying a search to confirm courses appear
FAQs
Can I use any Pluralsight account to set up the integration?
You need administrator access to your organisation's Pluralsight account to generate an API key. Personal accounts may not have the necessary permissions.
How long does the API key last?
Pluralsight API keys don't expire by default, but your Pluralsight administrator can revoke them at any time. If your integration stops working, check that the API key is still valid.
Can I connect multiple Pluralsight accounts?
Learn Amp supports one Pluralsight integration per company. If you need to switch accounts, you'll need to update the API key with credentials from the new account.
Who can see the API key once it's entered?
The API key is encrypted and stored securely. Even administrators cannot view the full key once it's saved – only replace it.
