BCSBACKOFFICE_APIKEY=

# New BCS V4 Api Urls

```

Keep up to date

> composer update

Upgrading from V2

You need to add the following to `config/bcsapi.php`

```
  'v4' => [
            'backoffice' => [
                'url' => env('BCSBACKOFFICE_V4_APIURL',''),
                'token' => env('BCSBACKOFFICE_V4_APITOKEN',''),
            ],
        ]
```

and `.env` is

```
BCSBACKOFFICE_V4_APIURL={base host url, not api.backoffice.ie}
BCSBACKOFFICE_V4_APITOKEN={sanctum token}

```

V2 BCSApiWrapper

```
$CourseApi =  App('BCSApi')->Course();
$CourseInfo = $CourseApi->CourseInfo(12345);
echo $CourseInfo->CourseName;
```

V4 BCSApiWrapper

```
$CourseApi = BCSLoader::Course();
$CourseInfo = $CourseApi->CourseInfo(12345);
echo $CourseInfo->CourseName;
```

This may require rewriting of quite a bit of code on upgrading.
