Smart IA

The Smart IA operations in the Connect API offers a robust set of operations for managing Initial Assessment sessions, cohorts, and tests. The API enables the retrieval of sessions, allowing for efficient tracking of each student's progress. Cohort operations facilitate effective group management, with features for creating cohorts, assigning users and tests, and removing them as needed.
