api/v1/courses/sis_course_id:{id#}/sections - Not getting sections back

Hello, when I make this call to get sections for an 'unpublished' course, the response code received is 200 with a blank response. However, when I pull up the same course on the webapp, there is one section.

This call does work for 'published' courses. How do I get the sections for an 'unpublished' course?

Hi @unr_edm,

I'm unable to replicate this issue using the full admin account in my instance. Is the account/token you're using a full admin, or are you attempting to make this call with a more limited admin account, or a teacher enrollment or something along those lines? Please let us know when you have a chance so that perhaps someone will be able to replicate this.
