Set a course's description

PUT/v1/organization/{orgId}/learning/workspace/courses/{lessonId}/page

US Region: https://public-api.sessionboard.com · EU Region: https://public-api-eu.sessionboard.com

The description on the course's public page, up to 1,000 characters. An empty string removes it. A connected assistant's change waits for a person's OK (202 needs_approval), because it is public copy. Requires write:learning. Also at PUT /v1/learning/workspace/courses/{lessonId}/page.
