Description

This session provides methods to re-assign Lessons to Course Catalogs. A Lesson may map to multiple CourseCatalogs and removing the last reference to a Lesson is the equivalent of deleting it. Each CourseCatalog may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a Lesson to another CourseCatalog is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id).
